Fort Abraham Lincoln is a historic military post located in Mandan, North Dakota. It was originally established in 1872 as a strategic location to protect the Northern Pacific Railroad and the settlers who were traveling westward. The fort was named after President Abraham Lincoln and became a key outpost during the Indian Wars of the late 19th century.

The fort served as the headquarters for the 7th Cavalry Regiment and was the base camp for General Custer and his troops before they were sent to fight in the Battle of Little Bighorn in 1876. The fort also served as a home to the famous Indian leader, Sitting Bull, and his followers after they surrendered in 1881.

Today, Fort Abraham Lincoln is a state park that features reconstructed buildings from the original fort, including the Custer House, Commissary Storehouse, and Barracks. The park also includes hiking and biking trails, campgrounds, and picnic areas. Visitors can take guided tours, watch reenactments of military drills, and learn about the history of the fort and the role it played in the settling of the American West.
