Fort Morris, Colonial fortification in Liberty County, Georgia, US.
The earthwork fort stands on a strategic bend of the Medway River, featuring original defensive walls that extend across 70 acres of coastal land.
British forces captured Fort Morris in January 1779 after a prolonged siege, renaming it Fort George until their withdrawal later that same year.
The site maintains a museum displaying artifacts and documents that illustrate the military defense systems of colonial Georgia during the 18th century.
Visitors can access the fortification grounds daily from 9 AM to 5 PM, with guided tours offering detailed explanations of the defensive structures.
The fort remains one of the few Revolutionary War earthwork fortifications in the United States that retains its original structural formations.
