Fort Worden, located in Port Townsend, Washington, is a historic military installation that was built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as part of the United States' coastal defense system. The fort is situated on a scenic bluff overlooking the Puget Sound and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Originally constructed to protect the naval shipyards in Puget Sound from potential threats, Fort Worden is now part of a state park and serves as a cultural and recreational hub. The site includes well-preserved military structures, a lighthouse, and miles of hiking trails.
