Missouri River’s preeminent fur trading post from the 1820’s
to the Civil War, Fort Union was a colorful mix of river boaters, fur
traders, Plains Indian tribes and frontier capitalists. Bourgeois House,
once the setting of elegant dinners for distinguished guests, is now
a visitor center. Fort Union straddles the Montana-North Dakota border.
Open daily.
