Fort Douglas, Military fort in Salt Lake City, United States.

Fort Douglas is a former military post east of Salt Lake City, now located on the campus of the University of Utah, where barracks, officers' quarters and a museum remain. The buildings come from different construction periods and show post-Civil War architecture along with later additions through the 20th century.

Colonel Patrick Connor founded Camp Douglas in 1862 with volunteers from California and Nevada to secure mail routes and monitor the Mormon population. After World War I the post became headquarters for reserve units before transferring to the University of Utah in the 1960s.

The post was named for Stephen A. Douglas, the Illinois senator who ran against Abraham Lincoln in 1860; the camp kept the name when it became Fort Douglas in 1878. The University of Utah now owns most of the grounds, and the Utah Military Museum at Historic Fort Douglas occupies two former barracks buildings.

The Utah Military Museum at Historic Fort Douglas occupies two former barracks buildings; the site lies on the University of Utah campus east of downtown Salt Lake City. The historic Soldier's Circle and surrounding grounds can be walked on foot, and the remaining fort property passed to the university in August 2026.

A small military cemetery in the northeastern section holds graves of German and Italian prisoners of war who died during World War I and World War II. The headstones bear names and hometowns from Europe, making the grounds a rare witness to international fates on American soil.
