Visitors may take a self-guided tour and stop in at the site's museum to view artifacts. Fort Huachuca is an active military base that started as a camp established to protect settlers and travelers journeying through Southeastern Arizona in the 1800s. It was designated as a fort in 1882. Buffalo Soldiers were among the men who served here, protecting the border during World War I as one of their many duties. The Fort Huachuca Historical Museum is open to the public.
