Historic Structure Report, Historic Data Section, the Third Fort Union 1863-1891, Fort Union National Monument, New Mexico
The ruins of the Third Fort Union mark the location of the major military supply point along the Santa Fe Trail. Consisting of the post proper, the quartermaster depot, and the hospital, Fort Union gave protection and shelter to area inhabitants and travelers along the Santa Fe Trail, and aided in the distribution of supplies to other forts in the Southwest. The remaining adobe ruins and limestone foundations represent a prime early example of the New Mexico Territorial style of architecture.
