Remember when the blacksmith shop went up? It was one more piece of the puzzle in bringing the Fort King National Historic Landmark back to how it looked in the 1830s.

Projects like this happen because our community chips in. Each structure helps visitors picture daily life at the first interior fort in Florida.

Ever wonder where your donation goes?

At Fort King, it goes into the ground, literally. Donations have helped:
✅ Rebuild the fort based on the original size
✅ Add structures like the blacksmith shop
✅ Get our new school bus on the road for student field trips
✅ Support reenactments and education programs for Marion County students

And the next chapter is a new museum and education center. Be part of it at ftking.org/get-involved

Give4Marion 2026 is TOMORROW, 9/15 @10:00 AM! Get ready for your chance to support the Fort King Heritage Foundation in funding Field Trips to the fort!

No child should miss out on a field trip because of finances.

Our goal, this year, is to help bring children to the Fort for Field Trips, teach children about the Seminole Wars and about life in the early 1800's with new curriculum. Field Trips to the Fort is an initiative with one goal in mind: No child should miss out on a field trip because of finances. Our students of Marion County have a historic artifact in their back yard! Now is the time to help them visit The Fort.
