National Park Service

Description

Fort Marion (now Castillo de San Marcos) was once was used as a prison for American Indians during several conflicts in the 19th Century (1837, 1870s, 1880s). The National Park Service, in coordination with Flagler College, is embarking on a project to find new ways to interpret these significant periods in the history of Castillo de San Marcos. Together, the National Park Service and Flagler College will begin much needed research on Tribal perspectives of the imprisonments, develop collaborative interpretive and scholarly programs for the general public, and develop opportunities to use Native American art as a way to present these Tribal perspectives.
