This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | The original name of Fort Snelling was Fort Saint Anthony. Constructed by the 5th Infantry Regiment of the army of the United States, Fort Saint Anthony was built under the direction of Colonel Josiah Snelling. Construction took place between 1820 and 1824 and after it was completed, the Fort was renamed for Josiah Snelling and has been known as Fort Snelling since that time. Fort Snelling is the site of one of the longest nearly continuous weather records in the United States, having been started by the post surgeon in 1820 and continuing until the present day. |
