Welcome to the website for Friends of Fort Harrod

Fort Harrod holds a special place in Kentucky history as the first permanent settlement in the area that would become the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Founded by James Harrod in 1774, a reconstructed fort occupies land near the original site in Harrodsburg, Kentucky. Park manager, David Coleman is making great strides in making Fort Harrod a “re-enactor friendly” historic site.
