 SUTTER'S FORT  Built by Swiss immigrant John Sutter in the early 1800s, Sutter's

Fort was known for providing refuge and hospitality to weary travelers. Overrun by miners

during the Gold Rush, Sutter's Fort has now been restored and is open for tours seven days a week

 

SUTTERS FORT

Sutter's Fort was a 19th-century agricultural and trade colony in the Mexican Alta California province.[3][4] Established in 1839, the site of the fort was originally part of a utopian colonial project called New Helvetia (New Switzerland) by its builder John Sutter, though construction of the fort proper would not begin until 1841. The fort was the first non-Indigenous community in the California Central Valley,[5] and saw grave mistreatment of Indigenous laborers in plantation or feudal style conditions. The fort is famous for its association with the Donner Party, the California Gold Rush, and the formation of the city of Sacramento, surrounding the fort. It is notable for its proximity to the end of the California and Siskiyou Trails, which it served as a waystation.[6]

In modern times, the adobe structure has been restored to its original condition (38.5723°N 121.4712°W) and is now administered by California Department of Parks and Recreation. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1961.[7]: 42
