Fort Meigs State Memorial
State Park Information

State Park Overview
William Henry Harrison built Fort Meigs on the Maumee River in 1813 to protect northwest Ohio and Indiana from British invasion. Todays reconstruction is one of the largest log forts in America. British and Canadian troops -ssisted by Indians under Tecumseh, besieged the fort twice. The 10-acre log enclosure with 7 blockhouses and 5 emplacements presented a formidable defense. The first assault was in May of 1813 and the second was in July. Both failed and the British retreated after the second.

The blockhouses contain exhibits explaining Ohios participation in the War of 1812 as well as the life at Fort Meigs. Artifacts recovered from the original fort are on display.
