Review:
Fort Christmas Historical Park is a lovely public park in the aptly-named town of Christmas, preserving the historic Fort Christmas military fortifications, named in honor of their date of construction beginning on Christmas Day of 1837. The fort was one of over 200 forts developed by the United States in response to the Second Seminole Indian War and remains operational as a living history facility today, showcasing seven restored historic buildings and homes that recreate the lifestyle of 19th and 20th-century Florida pioneers. A free-admission park surrounds the historic buildings, showcasing a variety of visitor amenities, including sporting courts, children's playgrounds, and fully-equipped picnic pavilions. Each year, the park hosts public special events such as the Orlando Wetlands Festival and the Florida Living History Festival.
