Old Fort Johnson, Georgian stone residence in Fort Johnson, United States.

The limestone building features a hip roof, three gabled dormers, and five front bays with a center entrance sheltered by a Doric column portico.

William Johnson constructed this fortified residence in 1749, serving as his home and trading center until relocating to Johnson Hall in Johnstown in 1763.

The residence reflects the colonial period architecture of New York, incorporating Georgian design elements with practical defensive features common in frontier settlements.

The Montgomery County Historical Society maintains this National Historic Landmark as a museum, displaying artifacts from the colonial period of New York.

The building includes a strategic basement kitchen and a central hall plan with distinct chambers for dining, studying, and formal social gatherings.
