The original Fort Des Moines, established in 1843, was located near the confluence of the Des Moines and Raccoon rivers in Montrose, Iowa. It served as a military outpost during the Indian Wars and was part of the broader efforts to secure the Iowa territory. The fort's strategic position allowed for better control and protection of the surrounding area. Today, the site is marked by historical markers and is a point of interest for visitors.
