Fort Dodge Description
Fort Dodge was established in 1865 on the Santa Fe Trail. It offered protection to wagon trains, the US mail service and served as a supply base for troops engaged in the Indian Wars. The original buildings were sod houses but several stone houses, erected in 1867, are still used.
