New!

A new site that’s a whirlwind of activity!

You’ll love the historical character and the things going on at Artillery Park Heritage Site, at Parks Canada. The farm animals of New France wander among soldiers and merchants. Little ones will love creating their own coat-of-arms and arrowheads, while grownups will enjoy chatting with the glass blower and cobbler. Watch out for the cannons!
