Take a walk through Ticonderoga
Historic Ticonderoga, nestled between Lakes Champlain and George at the southern end of the Adirondacks, boasts a rich history dating back to Samuel de Champlain's arrival in 1609. Established as a French fort in 1755, the town played a crucial role in both the Colonial and Revolutionary Wars. In the 19th century, its economy shifted from agriculture to industry, powered by the LaChute River's mills. Despite a devastating fire in 1875, Ticonderoga thrived, rebuilding its commercial district, and today, it showcases 19th-century architecture alongside homes linked to the town’s industrial boom.
Ticonderoga began with the fort and was soon a center of paper production. It has more than three dozen buildings listed on the National Register. Like the Hancock House!
Did you know the former Agway building (1879), no longer in use, began as a grist mill? Take the walking tour to learn more cool facts!
