Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Rampart and glacis, detached forts testify to the development of the art of fortifying a territory. Two of the forts components hid the defence work and help deceive the enemy.
Levis Fort#1 National Historic site of Canada were built by the British Army on the south shore of the St. Lawrence River to protect the City of Quebec from a possible American invasion. Three Forts were built between 1865 and 1872. Fort number 1 presents remarkable technological innovations for those years. This fort has been beautifully restored by the Parks Canada. There are multimedia exhibitions on the history of Fort #1, a casemate, a powder magazine, vaulted ramparts, tunnels or a shooting gallery. |
