About the event

Artillery & Muskets

Watch Union soldiers fire real cannons and muskets — and learn how they were loaded and used in battle.

🕐 Live demos at 1 PM, 2 PM & 3 PM
📍 Fort Washington Park
🎓 Hear the history, see the smoke, feel the power!

⚠️ Loud noises ahead! Like fireworks — not ideal for sensitive ears or pups. Rangers will give a heads-up before each blast.
