Fort New Salem

Fort New Salem is a collection of relocated log structures representing a frontier settlement of nineteenth century North-Central WV. The original community was settled in 1792 by a group of Seventh Day Baptist families from Shrewsbury, NJ. English, Welsh, Scotch-Irish and German farm culture shaped the traditions that dominated the region until the development of energy and mineral resources brought a wave of immigration into the area. Living history programs at Fort New Salem reflect the heritage of these cultural diversities, 1792-1901.
