Alexander KostOctober 8, 2018That’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?
Samuel A. BudionoJune 7, 2014Love the concept of architecture that has been followed in today design approach. To make the nature becomes part of architecture!
Mayara SiqueiraAugust 31, 2014Beautiful place to visit in Quebec! Also, the tickets are not expensive!
Tefa B.July 20, 2023Amazing to hear the band playing! Great tour by Julian and to finish a wonderful museum! Worth a visit!- Shawn BryanAugust 28, 2018The changing of the guard is a marvelous ceremony. Much history plays out in the ceremony and the name is excellent.
Chema SanromanJune 11, 2017If 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 VazquezOctober 20, 2019Historic & emblematic site in Quebec. The better view to St Lorenz River
FamilyFunMarch 15, 2012An impressive, historic fort that families can explore. Don't miss the dramatic changing of the guard. -Copy Chief
Dave FleetJuly 14, 2012If you do the English guided tour, try to get in Olivier's group. He's excellent.
eric bornemannFebruary 10, 2019Beautiful 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.- EBApril 5, 2018Tour was ok, not a ton of historic depth, but cool to see the fort. The museum is good.
Alan x el mundoFebruary 9, 2019Caminar y perderse. Es la parte más bonita de Quebec. Los artistas callejeros hacen audición y tienen tiempos y lugares asignados.
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.
Les visites sont géniales! Tant visites guidées que nocturnes ou éducationnelles! Ça vaut le détour!

"There isn't much to this museum - plaques on the wall and a diorama with a short movie - but it's quite fun and gives a quick history of the city and fort."
Reena B-S - 8.6
"Interesting museum, if oddly curated. The first peoples exhibit is very well done and informative. However, some of the Quebec historical sections are presented without a ton of context."
