Named after Dr. Joseph Warren, who was killed at the battle of Bunker Hill, it was not only a fort but also a prisoner of war camp during the Civil War. It operated through the Civil War, the Spanish-American War, and both World Wars. During the second World War it was a mine control center for Boston Harbor, the mines were stored in a building which is today used as the park headquarters.
