Fort Recovery is a pretty, little historic village of some
1,300 population, located in West Central Ohio. The village is built on the
site of General St. Clair's defeat in 1791 and General "Mad" Anthony
Wayne's battle (recovery) in 1794. The fort that was built under Wayne's
command was called Fort Recovery and that remains the name of the village.
Fort Recovery is located on State Route 49 just 50 minutes north of I-70
and 45 minutes west of I-75. Dayton, OH, Lima, OH and Ft. Wayne, IN are within
an one-hour drive of Fort Recovery.
