Comments:	Fort Ticonderoga (The name "Ticonderoga" comes from the Iroquois meaning "it is at the junction of two waterways"), formerly Fort Carillon, is a large 18th-century star fort built by the French at a narrows near the south end of Lake Champlain, in northern New York during the French and Indian war. The fort was of strategic importance during the 18th-century colonial conflicts between Great Britain and France and again played an important role during the American Revolutionary War. <br> The British abandoned the fort after the failure of the Saratoga campaign, and it ceased to be of military value after 1781. After gaining independence, the United States allowed the fort to fall into ruin; local residents stripped it of much of its usable materials. Purchased by a private family in 1820, it became a stop on tourist routes of the area. Early in the 20th century, its private owners restored the fort. A foundation now operates the fort as a tourist attraction, museum, and research center. <p> Admission is $24 per person for adults. They will not allow access to the penny press unless you pay admission. <p> All have "Fort Ticonderoga" printed with pictures.
