About 12 miles off the Mississippi Gulf Coast, Fort Massachusetts offers a glimpse into Civil War history. The D-shaped brick fort, where construction began in 1859, features cannons, arched corridors and grass-covered walls for visitors to explore, according to the National Park Service.<\/p>\n

The unfinished fort was seized by Mississippi militia forces in early 1861, marking one of the earliest actions leading into the Civil War.<\/p>\n

The extra effort required to get there limits visitor numbers, offering a rare sense of solitude in the national park system, according to Travel + Leisure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
