Boonesborough was established in 1775 by Richard Henderson and Daniel Boone. The fort was completed in September 1778 - just in time to withstand a nine-day attack by Indians and Frenchmen, later known as "The Great Siege." A rebuilt working fort with blockhouses, cabins, and period furnishings is now on the site.
