New exhibit at Fort Anne
A new exhibit was officially opened this morning at Fort Anne. It came after the unveiling of a Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada plaque. Fort Anne is Canada’s first national historic site, designated as a “Dominion Park” in 1917. The fort itself dates back to 1702.
