What People Are Saying About Fort Nashborough

In Short – On Christmas Eve in 1779, a group of determined pioneers traveled down the Cumberland River on flatboats, settling on its banks in what was still the Wild West. They carved a new life out of the rugged terrain, struggling against the elements and many other hardships to build Fort Nashborough. A replica, one-fourth the size of the original fort, now stands in Riverfront Park and is open for history buffs to take 20 minute tours.

Neat, But Not Much To See

by uwish86 at Citysearch

Being a history buff, I like Fort Nashborough, but there is really not much to see there. A few old restored buildings and a statue. If you have a short attention span, though, the good news is that it only takes about 10 minutes to see the whole thing!

  • Pros: Historical, View of the river, Free
  • Cons: Small
