Morgan, Miss Teen North Carolina International Visits Fort Macon!


FORT MACON







This summer Miss Teen North Carolina International went to Beaufort North Carolina to visit Fort Macon. Fort Macon is made up of total brick and stone, armed with 54 heavy cannons, and has 26 vaulted rooms, where in each room you can visit and learn more about what went on at Fort Macon. During the 18-19th century region, Beaufort was one of the many places known to be attacked. The Civil War began on April 12, 1861. IT was then attacked later in 1862, where it then fell back in to the hands of the Union. Fort Macon was named after Nathaniel Macon. Fort Macon is surrounded on 3 sides by water, the Atlantic Ocean, Beaufort Inlet, and Bouge Sound. Its sits right where there is a public access to the great waves, warm sun and sand of the beautiful Crystal Coast! Fort Macon is a great place for the family of any ages, fun and a learning experience!
