About Fort Verde State Historic Park

The buildings preserved here are what remain of an Apache Wars-era military post as it stood in the 1880s. The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1971, a year after the park's creation. Visits center on these surviving fort structures rather than natural scenery, giving a look at how the post functioned during that period.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
