Fort Randolph, Military fort in Point Pleasant, West Virginia.
Fort Randolph stands at the meeting point of the Ohio and Kanawha Rivers, featuring wooden structures and defensive walls for territorial control.
Established in 1776 during the American Revolutionary War, the fort served as a crucial military outpost for the Continental Army until 1779.
The fort contains exhibits depicting colonial military life and Native American relations, including documents about the death of Shawnee Chief Cornstalk.
Visitors can explore the reconstructed fort in Krodel Park, which includes period-accurate buildings, military equipment displays, and educational materials.
The current fort structure, rebuilt in 1974, sits one mile from the original location and maintains the exact specifications of the 1776 design.
