A Walking Tour Through Fort Knox [VIDEO]
This is something every Mainer should do!
Just across the Penobscot River from Bucksport, the town of Prospect is home to the historic Fort Knox. Built between 1844 and 1869, it was the first fort in Maine built entirely of granite, most previous forts used wood, earth, and stone.
YouTube user Nomadic Phoenix takes you on a walking tour during a recent August afternoon.
