This is definitely an underrated spot in the middle of PA. The admission fee is only $5 per person, and a thorough tour is included. (BTW, on some particular days they have events with higher admission.) We really appreciated to have this lady as our tour guide. She was happy to answer all our questions and she accompanied us for quite a while, almost showed us everything. It was a very informative tour indeed and got an idea of how the life was like in 18 century. Other staff did a great job showing us some cool stuff too. Other than that, there are several trails you can choose from and take a walk around the fort. We did the nearest and shortest one, and it was quite pleasant. Although this replica(rebuilt in 1970s) is much smaller than the original one, we still enjoyed our visit a lot and hope more would discover this historic site, which can be dated back to 1778!State College附近沒太多有趣的地方可去，所以滿推薦可以來這裏走一趟知性之旅。這裏在1778年曾為大陸軍生產彈藥，雖然才經營不過兩年的時間就因為產製效率不佳以及日後法國參戰而廢棄了，但也是個和美國獨立戰爭有關的景點。入場費5美金(遊客中心在穀倉裡)，可自由選擇要不要參加導覽，導遊會先在遊客中心介紹個大概，再帶你在走進堡壘裡面的各間小屋，介紹堡壘的歷史和當時的彈藥製造以及生活方式等等。現場也會另外有一些其他展示，像我們去的時候是演示當時的槍是如何讓子彈上膛的，也現場射擊一槍空包彈給我們感受一下。這個堡壘是重建的，可能只有原初堡壘的六分之一大而已。雖然堡壘本身並不大，但周圍有幾條步道可散步。整體來說還是滿有樂趣的。

This was one of those random - saw a sign on the highway and needed a break from the car - kind of stops. I had never heard of fort roberdeau before today. It is fantastic. I went with my boyfriend. There are 3 parts of the tour. On each part we had very knowledgeable guides. Our favorite part was interacting with the living history interpreter.If you are in the area and have a curiosity about a frontier fort this is a great stop.The drive to get there is quite lovely as well.

Worth the stop, inexpensive, very nice outdoor tour and indoor film. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant.

Awesome piece of Revolutionary War History. Located in the beautiful mountains of Central Pennsylvania [Blaire County]. Admission was very reasonable. Nice little gift shop. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.

I was very surprised that this place was this nice. We had a group of 12 people and they easily accommodated us. We got a private tour with guides in 18th century clothes and were very knowledgeable about the fort and the history. Nice facility and I will be back.

Lovely setting, great revolutionary history, and only $5 admission including guide.

Love going here! This has been a part of my life for as long as I have been alive! History of it is wonderful.

Unfortunately its closed still but it looks interesting wood like to go back

Great place for kids to visit and learn about history! Real slice of the past! Really not that far from home. It was a fun trip. Kids also got a chance to try revolutionary era toys...took some practice

Nice and knowledgeable staff. Great historical site. And we made friends with a chicken.

Brilliant educational experience with fantastic knowledge on offer - still trying to work out the engraving on the swivel gun though!

Went last year. Very knowledgeable staff.

Very cool & very glad we went.

Really nice stop to hear and see one of the side stories to the American war for independence. $5pp, 11 min movie that gives the right amount of background, nice facilities, variety of things to see, and very friendly and knowledgeable interpreters.

We always have a wonderful time at the fort, especially during their 4th of July celebration. The hiking path is great for everyone and there is a geocache along the way

We decided to go here on our vaction after seeing things to do in Altoona, PA on the internet. We werent sure what to expect, but we werent disappointed either. This is a hidden treasure near Altoona, PA. If you are ever in the area and even barely like US History, this is a must stop. It is a little off the main road but well worth the time getting there. It took us about 15 minutes from our hotel in Pinecroft, PA. They had a short video to view before the tour along with some features in their little museum. Our guide in the picture was very knowledgeable of the time period and the who, what, why and when of the fort. They have an original Conestoga wagon with all of the natural parts(except the canvass).

Site isnt historically accurate. And the tour just pointed to objects (money on a table, rifles, etc) that didnt have any significance.

Good side to see

Nice place for some history. Just plan on a nice sunny day.

Great place for a school field trip

Great experience, a well built and clearly well loved historic monument. The village Craftsmen were exceptionally knowledgeable and friendly to speak with. Special thanks to John the doctor and Tom the blacksmith for excellent discussion and tons of information. Highly recommend a stop!

Nice historic place to visit. Its a bit in the middle of nowhere BUT thats also how it was when it in use.I strongly recommend viewing the video before you visit the grounds, its been recently updated and is very informative.The tour guides try their best to be informative as well but as with other things some guides are very knowledgeable and other not quite as good but they do all try their best to make the tours informative, educational and interesting.

History comes to life ... yes its not authentic and only a re-creation, but there is enough attention to detail and such that allows you to take a peak into a very historic site that played an important role during the revolutionary war.

Lady was very nice and the tour to.

It is an interesting and educational site, but it is at its best during special events like Rev War Days in July when there are plenty of reenactors/living historians around. Dont miss the nature trails.

We visit several historic forts and this one is definitely a place to see. Guided tours are awesome as well as their honesty about how it should be due to inaccurate information during the rebuild. Several events are held throughout the year. We will deffinetly be back

Nice place to visit very Interesting

Cute little place to take your family I suggest the Halloween tour it was very fun and cute for my family and friends

Took my wife and kids here for the first time and had a blast will be going back this summer

Great staff. Beautiful historical place to go.

Enjoyed my visit there.The lady tour guide was excellent.Well learned on the facts.The gentleman inside the barn museum was also on point.

First time going here and have lived in Pennsylvania all my life. Great experience.

Unique place!

Wonderful staff and the display of history for the area is really interesting

My wife and I visited Fort Roberdeau today, and I must say it is a very nice facility with a lot of history attached to it.However, when we first got there, there were no other guests there.The young lady the guided us was knowledgable but as we were going through more guests arrived and she rushed us through to go to the next group.Also a lot of the buildings were locked and no effort made to open them because we were the only oned there.Thumbs down !

I love the scenery around the area. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable.Great place to visit

I was at a meeting in White Oak Hall on the grounds of Fort Roberdeau. It is a very nice facility for meetings, events or special occasions!

This was so much fun. Our tour guide was so funny. Interesting history though not an accurate rebuilding puf the fort

Great place to visit and has a native Indian village on site as well and this year for Rev War days, the British Brigade is going to be there, so there will be a lot of reenactors therethere. I myself will be there as a Scottish highlander. Looking forward to the event. Everyone, who works at the fort are very friendly and helpful.

Interesting place! We took our 7 year old twins and our kids were equally as interested as we were. Be sure to check out the Conestoga wagon in the barn! The volunteers and tour guides were all very friendly, informative, professional, and well-versed on the forts history. There are both covered and non-covered picnic tables....we walked around for a while, stopped for a relaxing lunch, then continued exploring.

Everyone was very knowledgeable and the site was very clean and well maintained

Very good greeting and tour good talk regarding the history.

Very interesting and informative and a cool place to visit but the air conditioning is very absent

Our tour guide was wonderful and answered all the kids questions kindly. Be sure to take the nature tour and take some bug spray. Nice picnic area.

Disappointed the brochure said it opened at 11. It does not it does not start tours till 1. So we did not get to go in the fort just seen and read sign on the outside.

Lovely setting, great revolutionary history,

Great historic educational site

Fort Roberdeau is a hidden gem tucked away in the PA countryside. This very important fort supplied lead for our military during the Revolutionary war. Its a short diversion off of I-99, and well worth your time to visit.

Great place to go to observe, and learn about, a marvel of Pennsylvanias history. I attended the 4th of July, where staff shared an abundance of information. On certain days of the year, the site also offers activities such as battle reenactment!

Cool but you gotta pay to go in

Learned alot

I went on a school outing with my daughter. Its an interesting place and has alot of history.

Engaging historical site with period actors.

Interesting place but the staff arent very patient with kids

One of my favorite places to go with my dogs. Great hiking. Love the historic fort and other properties, the woods, and the stream.

Interesting place.

Simplicitic but fun. Very educational. All staff was very knowledgeable and pleasant

A++ American history. Go on 4th of July. There are re-enactors, including Native Americans. Great picture of life on the frontier at the time of the Revolution. Check web site for free admission days and re-enactments.

It was a great little tour. It was fun to see how people lived in the American Revolutionary times.

Great restored fort, have group picnic there in separate area, see the stars, great volunteers

If you love past historical sites you will definitely enjoy this place

Great place to go for a weekend adventure,

Small Revolutionary War fort, but nice on event days & good to take the kids.

Very nice place to learn about history!

Had a great time at there haunted trail .hopefully will have next year.

Great people very informative

Great experience! Living History presenters guide you thru the reconstruction of the old fort which protected the young USAs lead production areas.

Very nice place the kids enjoyed it.

Historical site with special events that bring the history to life.

Nice historic site close to home! Friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Fun and informative

Very nice fort

So much history and a beautiful place to visit. Not very big

A hidden gem. Sure its not the original fort but it holds a forgotten part of American Revolution history. How the Americans had to mine lead while keeping British allied Indians at bay because lead supplies were being blocked by the British navy from getting in. WWII reenactors were on site telling me about prisoners of war. I got to see both American and German uniforms.

Very cool to see how Americans used to live.

Beautiful area & awesome historical reanactment!

Loved it there

I was there as a child and I thought it was wonderful.

Reproduction of a 1778 fort. Very interesting and informative.

Nice place to visit.
