Admission includedStanding guard along the Atlantic shore of Key West, Fort East Martello Museum draws you into a world of sun-warmed brick walls, shaded courtyards, and stories that stretch back to the Civil War. The fort was never completed, yet its cylindrical tower and vaulted chambers survived intact, making it one of the best-preserved examples of Martello architecture in the country. Today Fort East Martello Museum houses an eclectic collection ranging from salvaged ship artifacts and iron sculptures to the island's most notorious resident, the haunted doll Robert, whose unsettling glass eyes have captivated visitors for generations.
