Operated by the Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation, Jamestown Settlement features full-scale reconstructions of the three 1607 ships (Susan Constant, Godspeed, and Discovery), a re-created James Fort with costumed interpreters, and a Powhatan village with hands-on demonstrations of Native lifeways, designed specifically for interactive family and school-group engagement. It receives approximately 500,000 visitors annually and is the primary living-history draw for families visiting the Jamestown area.
