Summary

Description

Inscription: Historical Site Defenses of Washington 1861-1865 Fort Cass

During the Civil War, the Union built a series of forts to defend Washington, D.C. By 1865 there were 33 earthen fortifications in the Arlington Line. Fort Cass (1861) was part of this defensive strategy. Built on top of the rise east of this marker, this lunette fort was named for Colonel Thomas Cass, whose regiment constructed the fort.

This marker is included in the Defenses of Washington marker series.
