  • Good piece of history.
  • its educational, and little kids may not care to much for it since they cant appreciate the history.

“The citadel is a fun experience, besides watching the changing of the guard which is a nice ceremony, you can walk around the fort, and take in some terrific views of the river, and surrounding areas. There are Cannons still in place showing you how the fort and the driveway was defended. You can see why the fort was never stormed from the sheer 100 foot cliffs, but rather the enemy came via the plains of Abraham. ”
