Album Info:
At the end of the granite breakwater is historic Fort Preble - "Fort Preble was built in 1808, periodically modernized, and manned until 1950, when it became Southern Maine Technical College. Confederate sailors were imprisoned here after an unsuccessful raid on the harbor in 1863" per the www.cascobay.com/history website. We toured the small museum and got a lesson about the fort and the area from Ed who, as it turns out, knows the parents of a friend of ours back in Florida. Small world.
