Fort Scott National Historic Site Hours Temporarily Reduced

January 8, 2024 · Source: National Park Service

Fort Scott National Historic Site is temporarily reducing its hours of operation to 8:30am-4:30pm Friday through Tuesday tentatively through the end of March. The park grounds will not be closing, only the park’s public buildings and Visitor Center on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Due to an extended staffing shortage the park is temporarily unable to provide adequate operational coverage and visitor services. Administrative and facility operations will continue as normal. By the end of March, the park projects returning to normal operations seven days each week.
