Fort Durham, Archaeological site in Juneau, United States.
Fort Durham stands at coordinates 58.033611, -134.000278, featuring remnants of walls and interior structures from a former Hudson's Bay Company trading post.
The British Hudson's Bay Company constructed Fort Durham in 1840 as one of three posts in Russian America through a lease agreement with the Russian American Company.
The site documents the intersection of British, Russian, and American interests in the North Pacific fur trade during the nineteenth century colonial period.
Archaeological investigations at the National Historic Landmark site have uncovered structural elements that provide information about colonial construction methods and trade activities.
Fort Durham, also known as Fort Taku, operated for only three years until 1843 when the company reduced operations to annual ship visits.
