HowStuffWorks "Fort Vancouver National Historic Site" "Now a spiked wooden stockade surrounds six acres of buildings, including the blacksmith's shop, where iron and steel items needed for the fur trade industry were made; the bakery, where four men baked bread and biscuits for up to 300 people; and the Indian trade shop and dispensary, which housed the fur-trading operations, as well as the hospital and doctor's office and residence. The house of Dr. John McLoughlin, the administrator of the fort who later became known as the Father of Oregon, is a roomy and elegant house with white-clapboard siding and a large front veranda. Costumed interpreters bring the fort to life, occasionally firing up the ovens and baking sea biscuits (rations for soldiers) or forming iron tools at the blacksmith's shop. . The visitor center has exhibits, a small store, and a film depicting the fort's early history.
