English: John Brown's Fort was originally built in 1848 for use as a guard and fire engine house for the federal Armory in Harpers Ferry, Virginia (since 1863, West Virginia). The building achieved fame when it became a refuge by abolitionist John Brown during his rad on Harpers Ferry. It is the only surviving building of the Armory; the others were destroyed during the Civil War. It quickly became a tourist attraction, and has been moved four times: in 1891 to the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, in 1895 to the Murphey Farm near Harpers Ferry, in 1909 to the campus of historically black Storer College in Harpers Ferry, and in 1968 by the National Park Service to its present location in lower Harpers Ferry, near its original site. An obelisk stands where it was originally located. The building and obelisk are part of the Harpers Ferry National Historical Park.
