A jewel of the provincial capital, the Fortifications of Québec National Historic Site is a reminder of the richness of the city’s military past. The site takes us back to the French and British regimes when Québec played a deciding role in the defence of the colony. Stroll along the fortification walls, admire the work of highly skilled craftsmen and learn how these defensive works fashioned the city’s layout and future growth.
