Fort Connah Site, Historical trading post in Mission Valley, Montana.
Fort Connah includes a central log structure surrounded by replicated buildings that represent the original Hudson's Bay Company trading establishment from 1846.
The Hudson's Bay Company established Fort Connah in 1846 under Neil McArthur, with Angus McDonald completing the construction and managing operations until 1852.
The fort facilitated commerce between European traders and Native American tribes, particularly the Flathead Indians, through exchanges of furs and essential goods.
Visitors can locate Fort Connah along U.S. Route 93 between St. Ignatius and Charlo, with clear signage marking the historic site entrance.
The remaining original building at Fort Connah holds the distinction of being the oldest standing structure in the state of Montana.
