Fort Stevens

Fort Stevens stands at the mouth of Columbia River, featuring concrete gun batteries, military structures, and interpretive exhibits within a state park setting.

The fort operated from 1863 to 1947, becoming the first continental United States military installation to receive enemy fire during World War II from a Japanese submarine.

The Military Museum presents collections of wartime artifacts, photographs, and documents that illustrate the development of coastal defense systems through multiple conflicts.

Visitors can access the fort daily from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM, with entry fees of $5.00 per vehicle or $30.00 for an annual permit.

The Peter Iredale shipwreck, which ran aground in 1906, remains visible on the beach within the fort's state park boundaries.
