Join Norfolk Tour Company and Elizabeth River Trail for this FREE and special walking tour of historic Fort Norfolk!

Fort Norfolk is a historic fort and national historic district dating back to the founding of our country. It is the last remaining fortification of President George Washington's 18th century harbor defenses, later termed the first system of US fortifications --- and it's right on the Elizabeth River Trail! Some of the buildings in the fort date back to the 1790s.

Fort Norfolk is a federal property located next to the Army Corps of Engineers, which manages the fort. *Important* All tour attendees will need to provide photo identification in order to access the fort. This is a federal requirement.

The tour is in partnership with the ERT Foundation, and will last approximately an hour and 15 minutes. No registration required, just show up at the entrance of Fort Norfolk!
