That’s the place where the french lost the war and hence lots of their territories on North America. Did you know Louisiana and Florida were french back in the time?

Love the concept of architecture that has been followed in today design approach. To make the nature becomes part of architecture !

Mayara Siqueira

Beautiful place to visit in Quebec! Also, the tickets are not expensive !

Amazing to hear the band playing! Great tour by Julian and to finish a wonderful museum ! Worth a visit!

Shawn Bryan

The changing of the guard is a marvelous ceremony . Much history plays out in the ceremony and the name is excellent.

Chema Sanroman

If you want the best view from Quebec, go the Parc du Bastion de la Reine. There's no need to visit the disappointing Citadelle

Ruben Vazquez

Historic & emblematic site in Quebec. The better view to St Lorenz River

Diego HM

Summer is the best season to visit there.

Dave Fleet

If you do the English guided tour , try to get in Olivier's group. He's excellent.

An impressive, historic fort that families can explore. Don't miss the dramatic changing of the guard . -Copy Chief

Beautiful views of the city , but horrible tour guides - Not informative and annoying demeanor. Not worth the time for the tour . Museum is well done, especially on WW1.

Tour was ok, not a ton of historic depth, but cool to see the fort. The museum is good.

Ankur Agarwal

Good place for history. Awesome views of the city .

Janet D.

Go in the morning for changing of the guard !

Sarah Carter

Take the tour . Come in June. January is empty, glorious and freezing

Ankur Agarwal

Start your walking tour of the city from here.

Tbh there's not that much to see since no war actually took place here.

Caminar y perderse. Es la parte más bonita de Quebec. Los artistas callejeros hacen audición y tienen tiempos y lugares asignados.

Philippe Dessureault

Endroit historique qui vaut la peine d'être visité. L'été, profitez-en pour regarder le changement de la garde en matinée ou la retraite en soiree les soirs où elle est effectuée.

Marie-Eve Fortin

Les visites sont géniales! Tant visites guidées que nocturnes ou éducationnelles! Ça vaut le détour!

Nicolas Roberge

La terrasse du mess des officiers est exceptionnelle.
