Old Spanish Fort (Pascagoula, Mississippi)

Old Spanish Fort, also known as ''Old French Fort'' and ''LaPointe-Krebs House'', was constructed circa 1721 on the shore of Lake Catahoula (Krebs Lake) near what is now Pascagoula, Mississippi, by French Canadian Joseph Simon de la Pointe.〔(Fort de la Point ) Retrieved 2012-09-13〕 Old Spanish Fort is often described as the oldest building in the Mississippi River Valley.〔(LaPointe-Krebs House and Cotton Gin ) Retrieved 2012-09-08〕 The structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1971 and was designated a Mississippi Landmark in 1984. Old Spanish Fort is owned by the city of Pascagoula and serves as a museum.
==Description==
Old Spanish Fort was not really a fort. Instead, it was a one-story, three-room structure that measured 37 feet (11.3 meters) in width and 62.25 feet (18.97 meters) in length.〔(National Register of Historic Places Nomination Form--Old Spanish Fort ) Retrieved 2012-09-08〕 Framing walls were 18 inches (45.7 centimeters) thick,〔(Old Spanish Fort ) Retrieved 2012-09-13〕 constructed of cypress (probably bald cypress) and cedar (probably Atlantic white cedar), and filled with oyster-shell concrete in the oldest construction or with bousillage of clay and Spanish moss in a later addition.
Three sides of the structure were bounded by a porch, supported by square wooden posts that were joined by plank rails. The gable roof was covered with wooden shingles. Two fireplace chimneys were composed of stucco-covered brick. The original structure had one large room with two smaller rooms. Flooring was oyster-shell concrete covered with boards at a height of 18 inches (45.7 centimeters).〔
