Historical Meetings: History of the Fortifications of Quebec
Bibliothèque Gabrielle-Roy
Attend this historical meeting that will immerse you in the heart of the evolution of Old Quebec, one of the most remarkable heritage sites in North America. Discover how this city, first the capital of New France and then an important capital of the British Empire in North America, acquired fortifications, ramparts, and defensive structures that still shape its identity today. Through the story of the major stages of their construction, this conference will help you better understand the reasons that led to the creation of this remarkable defensive system. A true symbol of the city, this exceptional heritage, inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1985, attracts millions of visitors each year who come to admire the most complete example of a fortified colonial city north of Mexico. Conference presented by Éric Dussault, historian, researcher, author, and publisher.
