Home > Fort Ross

Fort Ross is a former Russian fur trade outpost in what is now Sonoma County, California ( United States). It was established in 1812 and abandoned in 1841, upon the depletion of the local population of fur-bearing marine mammals. The fort was home to Russians, Aleut hunters in their employment, and native Kashaya Pomo . This unique site has recently been the subject of intensive archaeological investigation. It is designated a National Historic Landmark.
