PRESERVING OUR HERITAGE
Fort Douglas was designated as a National Historical Landmark in 1970. Over one hundred original structures from 1863 through World War II are preserved by the University of Utah, the U.S. Army Reserve, and the Fort Douglas Museum.
HONORING THEIR SERVICE
Throughout American history, men and women have served their country in uniform, protecting our cherished way of life. Let us never forget their service or their sacrifices.
