Named after Colonel Abraham Myers, Fort Myers has a fascinating history that dates back to 1850. The city was named after a local fort built during the Seminole Wars. Myers served in the United States Army in various positions from 1833-1861 and later became the quartermaster general of the Confederate States Army from 1861-1864.

Today, Fort Myers plays an essential role as a gateway to the Southwest Florida region and a popular tourist destination in Florida. It is renowned for its mild climate, scenic beaches, and numerous attractions.
