Description:
As the highest point in the nation's capital, Fort Reno was instrumental in defending it from the Confederates in the Civil War. Even though it was never taken the fort saw a little bit of action - firing shots to would-be assailants who had heard the fort was undermanned. Other forts were well-fortified and thus the nation's capital was never reached.
