A great place to visit when it's open (which isn't that often). The best way to know the schedule is on Facebook, but generally Fort Putnam is open on football Saturdays from before the parade until around the end of the game.nAmazing views and great history.
A beautiful out of the way gem on West Point. Male sure it's open before you go check it out. Contact the local MWR for more details.
Three images attached. The one with the most hazy view across the river is by William Henry Bartlett (1809-1854), an original documenter of the sites of the Hudson River for European audiences, Bartletts' subject here is the abandoned Fort which predated West Point.nJasper Francis Cropsey (1823-1900) painted the view which includes the bare tree; an oddity for a painter who reveled in the treasure of the autumn colors. It may reflect the ruins of the Fort PutnamnThe most lush rendering was painted by Thomas Cole (1801-1848), the patriarch of the Hudson River School of landscape painting. This site became a subject for several painters, in part due to the association of the Fort with the glorious Revolution, and the air of ruins when the Fort fell into disuse
Called the number listed. A lady answered from West Point Museum, was rude from the beginning. Said she had no idea when Fort Putnam opened. So basically I got no info.
Awesome fort with lots of history
