Look at the save games. Provided you're using yearly or seasonal backup find the first one and see the year, and then see the current year from z.

Or you can look at your engravings. Engravings of the founding of the fortress will state what year the fort was founded.

If you can't remember when you founded your fortress, you can check in legends - copy game save, open copy, abandon, go into legends to the latest fort. From that, use your current fort time to figure it out.
