Fort Snelling
View of a post tower at Fort Snelling. A tree partially obscures the tower. Flags are arrayed on the battlements and the number "1820" (the year fort construction began) is on the left side of the tower. There is a building in the background on the right, and an arch with decorations is over the front walk to the building. Caption reads: "Minneapolis, Minn (?). c1905-1910. Fort reconstruction?" |
