Frontier Fort
Fort Davis in West Texas was established in 1854 to protect emigrants, mail coaches, and freight wagons traveling the trans-Pecos section of the San Antonio–El Paso Road and the Chihuahua Trail. It also served to monitor activity along the southern route of the Great Comanche War Trail and Mescalero Apache war paths. Today, it is preserved as a National Historic Site.
