Who We Are
A historic property of the Alabama Historical Commission, Fort Toulouse-Fort Jackson Park is a significant archaeological site. This area, where the Coosa and Tallapoosa meet to form the Alabama River, has been occupied for 10,000 years. Prehistoric and American Indians, Spanish explorers, French marines, English and Scottish traders and American settlers all left their mark on this National Historic Landmark.
What We Do
Frequent living history events showcase a recreated 1751 French fort, recreated Creek Indian houses and the partially restored 1814 American Fort Jackson. A 3,000-year-old Mississippian Indian mound, the William Bartram Nature Trail and an early-19th-century house weave even more strands into this colorful tapestry of Alabama’s earliest days.
