Fort Pitt Museum

Awesome little museum. Very short walk from downtown. You can easily spend 5 hours there just taking all the info in. Highly recommended if your in town or nearby.

Worth a visit and reasonably priced at eight bucks. A good potted history of Pittsburgh a good place to go and cool down after a walk in the small but beautiful park.

Never been in. There's a bike fixings station out front that saved me in a pinch. Thanks. Love riding my bike around that area and just do laps. 🤘

Was expecting something better, but still interesting. Park setting was beautiful even in winter!

Nice little museum that gives a good overview of the early history of the area and of The Point. Building exterior is constructed to give a hint of what a section of the wall of Ft. Pitt was once like. Through the exhibits you will learn how the area was of strategic importance in the years when France and England and their various Native American allies were vying for control of the region and its trade routes and how it traded hands over time. Hard to comprehend this urban area as a wilderness outpost but this museum does a good job of helping one visualize that time.
