Mason was a military outpost in the 1800s. Robert E Lee was posted here long before he rose in the ranks to General of the Confederate armies. At Fort Mason, you can see the entire city of Mason.
Visit the site of historic Fort Mason, established in 1851 on the frontier as a safe haven for settlers against Native American raids. On the site is a reproduction of the officers' quarters with a small exhibit about the fort's history. Without the fort, there would be no Mason. It is free to visit, and the vantage point of the fort offers sweeping views of the Texas Hill Country.

Fort Mason was established in 1851, and was Robert E. Lee's last command post in the U.S. Army. Albert Sidney Johnson, John Bell Hood, and Edmund Kirby Smith also served here prior to their service in the Civil War. During the war, the Confederacy controlled the fort, but it remained virtually unmanned. Families often sought shelter and protection within its walls during frequent Indian raids. Today, visitors can explore the reproduction officers' quarters at the Fort Mason Museum.
