SUMMARY:Colonial Michilimackinac Opening Day
DESCRIPTION:Step into Michilimackinac 1777: At War\, as Colonial Michilimackinac opens for the 2027 season and we continue our look at the American Revolution! \n\nTreasures from the past come to life at this 18th-century fort and fur trading village\, reconstructed based on historic maps and more than 60 years of archaeological excavations. As you walk through Colonial Michilimackinac\, you are stepping back in time to 1777\, as the British prepared to end the American Revolution with a decisive blow. \n\nHistoric interpreters representing voyageurs\, British soldiers\, and French-Canadian merchant families are stationed throughout the fort to answer your questions and perform demonstrations. The past and present blur into a fascinating and unmatched experience at Colonial Michilimackinac. Watch smoke billow from cannons\, mortars and muskets and see residents prepare food and tend the gardens. At one of the longest ongoing archaeological excavations in North America\, archaeologists are on site throughout the summer\, pulling history from the soil\, bit by bit.  \nLocated on the shore of the Straits of Mackinac\, visitors can enjoy stunning views of the Mackinac Bridge\, the straits\, and the Upper Peninsula. #thisismackinac
