Northern Rockies Heritage Center

The Northern Rockies Heritage Center in Missoula, MT is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the heritage and integrity of historic Fort Missoula. With a mission to foster historic, cultural, and educational enrichment, they aim to protect and maintain thirteen buildings, the parade grounds, and the water tower on their 16-acre property.

As one of Montana's most prominent links to America's wars and battles, Fort Missoula was established in 1877 and played a significant role in the Indian Wars, including the forced surrender of Chief Joseph and the Nez Perce tribe. Over the years, the fort housed renowned Black Infantry Regiments and underwent expansions, incorporating Mission Revival style architecture. The Northern Rockies Heritage Center is committed to preserving this historic site for future generations.
