Review & FAQ:
Fort Benton’s Historic Landmark District is probably the best place for visitors to start uncovering the interesting history of this frontier town. As you make your way along the Steamboat Levee Walk, which follows curve of the river from 7th Street to 18th Street, you can follow interpretive signs which tell the exciting history of one of the wildest of the Wild West gold rush towns, back in the 1800’s. The walk is lined with historic buildings including the original old fort, the Museum of the Upper Missouri, a replica keelboat and many statues and memorials. The landmark Old Fort Benton Bridge is clearly visible from the walk and you can also visit Fort Benton’s first firehouse to see an original old hand pumper.
