| Description |
PLEASE, no multi invitations in your comments. Thanks. Also called the Gibraltar of the Americas, the Citadel is a national historic monument and an official residence of the Governor General. The Citadel, dating from 1820, is one of Québec City’s most distinctive features, built at the city’s highest point, and a legacy of the British occupation. Quebec City, Quebec, Canada On the heights of Cap Diamant, the star-shaped, 25 building fortress was built to withstand a repeat attack on the city from across the Plains of Abraham to the southwest. By the time the fortress was finished in 1832, attacks against the city had ended. The Citadel has served as a base for the Royal 22nd Regiment. |
