Fort George, Military fort in Florida, United States.
Fort George stands on Fort George Island near Jacksonville, featuring stone fortifications and military structures from the 18th century along the coastline.
The British constructed Fort George in 1778 during the American Revolutionary War to establish a defensive position against potential Spanish advances from Florida.
The fort grounds include exhibits about military life, Native American settlements, and the early colonial period of Florida through interpretive displays.
Visitors can access the fort grounds daily from 8:00 AM until sunset through the entrance at Fort George Island Cultural State Park.
