Harrisburg Military Post
Harrisburg Military Post, National Guard armory complex in Harrisburg, United States.
Harrisburg Military Post is a military complex in Harrisburg featuring ten buildings arranged across a large property. The structures display various architectural approaches, ranging from classical to early modern styles throughout the grounds.
The complex began development in the 1920s and expanded over subsequent decades with additional structures. This growth reflected changing military needs and strategic priorities throughout the 20th century.
The 28th Infantry Division maintains its headquarters at this military post, continuing a tradition of service and leadership in Pennsylvania.
The site is best explored on foot since buildings are scattered across the grounds. Walking around the perimeter allows you to see different architectural styles and how the structures relate to one another.
The remaining stable buildings are a rare feature that shows how military facilities were equipped in the early 1900s. These structures stand as a reminder of when cavalry units were an essential part of the armed forces.
