- from the founding of Quebec City by French explorer Champlain in 1608,
- through the French and Indian War whose main repercussion was the creation of a 14th British colony, the Province of Quebec,
- until the last day of 1775 when British invaders from the American colonies were defeated in Lower Town Quebec City.
The Musée du Fort is the oldest family-owned tourist attraction in Québec City and is the perfect complementary activity to our tours!
