Fort Ticonderoga a stronghold during the
Revolutionary War, in New York on Lake Champlain. It was built by the French in 1755, during the
French and Indian War (1754–63), on a vital inland water route to Canada. The French first named it Fort Vaudreuil, but soon changed the name to Fort Carillon. The fort was captured in 1759 by the British and renamed Fort Ticonderoga. In 1775, during the
Revolutionary War, it was seized from the British by
Ethan Allen and the
Green Mountain Boys (Vermont troops) in a surprise attack. The British recaptured Fort Ticonderoga in 1777 but abandoned it in 1780. The fort was rebuilt in 1908, and a museum was opened there.
