Fort de Chartres – The Heart of the Illinois Country WELCOME TO FORT DE CHARTRES STATE HISTORIC SITE Located four miles west of Prairie du Rocher Illinois the site marks the location of the last of four successive French forts named de Chartres. Built in 1753 by the French during their eighteenthcentury colonization of the Illinois Country the massive stone fort was preceded by three wooden forts with the first fort erected in 1720. Fort de Chartres served as the French seat of government and its chief military installation in Upper Louisiana from 1753 until 1765 when it was occupied by the British. In 1763 France ceded much of its territory in North America including what is now Illinois to Great Britain.

I work in a nonprofit and listing our organization on Eduo.org helped us reach new audiences and even new volunteers. It’s easy to use and feels built with love.
