historic forts

Massachusetts certainly has some of the richest history of any state in the U.S. There's a ridiculous amount of things in the Bay State that even pre-date America's birthday on July 4th, 1776. Of course, some of the biggest parts of America's history also took place within the confines of some of the most historic forts in the U.S. Some of those have been made into national, state, and local parks. Others serve as historic monuments and landmarks throughout the country, which often make for great tourist attractions as well. It seems that two of these historic forts that are just as old as America are in Massachusetts.
