I can't remember a time when so much history has been so concentrated in one "Fort" as it is at Fort Monroe in Virginia. This 400-year-old army fort was the site of some of the first ever Africans that landed in America as well as a safe haven for enslaved during the American Civil War. Jefferson Davis was imprisoned there, Edgar Allen Poe served there, and Robert E. Lee helped build it...the history is endless.
