A traveling replica of George Washington’s headquarters on display at Fort Ligonier this weekend
A traveling replica of George Washington’s headquarters and sleeping tent is on display at Fort Ligonier through Sunday.
The large linen tent is filled with reproductions of period artifacts and equipment. Presented by Philadelphia’s Museum of the American Revolution, the exhibit includes costumed interpreters who assembled a replica of another tent that housed Washington’s baggage.
Earlier in his military career, Washington was present at Fort Ligonier, commanding British troops during the French and Indian War.
