Fort Lowell, located on the outskirts of Tucson and built in 1873, used to operate as a United States Army post which ceased activity in 1891. Over the years much of the original fort fell into disrepair and lay in ruins, before being rebuilt and made into the Fort Lowell Museum that visitors can explore today. The museum belongs to the Arizona Historical Society and depicts military life in the fort. Fort Lowell Museum is also part of the larger complex of Fort Lowell Park which includes a large pond, swimming pool, games fields and sports courts.
