Powder Magazine

Fort Brady – 1864

Directly in front of you is the site of a powder magazine, where ammunition and gunpowder were stored.

An explosion there could obliterate the fort. To bomb-proof the magazine, structural timbers were covered with a thick layer of earth.

Marker can be reached from Hoke Brady Road, on the right when traveling south.
