Lonely Planet review

Located at the junction of the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers, the historic Fort Snelling is the state's oldest structure. The fort was established in the early 19th century as a frontier outpost in the remote Northwest Territories. Now, guides in period dress show restored buildings and displays of frontier life.
