One of the unique aspects of Sutter’s Fort State Historic Park is that many of the rooms, like the blacksmith shop, are areas where we can demonstrate historical skills and also their impacts on 1840s California history. The blacksmith was one of the first jobs at Sutter's Fort and the blacksmith shop was operating through the early days of the Gold Rush. Iron stock was pretty hard to come by in early California so blacksmiths often repurposed iron goods or broken tools. Marco, one of our blacks

Commission votes to change Sutter’s Fort general plan to focus on Native American experience

The fort was located along the California coast just north of Bodega Bay on the unceded ancestral homeland of the Kashaya Pomo Native people. Ever sinc

Sutter's Fort SHP on Instagram: "On January 28, 1848, John Sutter wrote in the daily logbook at Sutter’s Fort, “Mr Marshall arrived from the Mountains on very important business.” Nothing further is said about that subject in the logbook, because Sutter possibly did not want others to read the reasoning behind James Marshall’s late arrival on a very stormy evening.
