(Translated) We visited this place last summer. It is a small fort that was rebuilt by the Government of Canada. Interesting visit which taught us more about the life of the settlers and soldiers living in this period. Visit lasting 2 to 3 hours if we take our time (Original) Nous nous sommes rendu à cet endroit l'été dernier. Il s'agit d'un petit fort qui a été reconstruit par le gouvernement du Canada. Visite intéressante qui nous en a appris davantage sur la vie des colons et des soldats vivant dans cette période. Visite d'une durée de 2 voir 3 heures si on prend notre temps

(Translated) It is a fort, that of Saint John. I tell you, it's very true, so go if you want to see Fort Saint-Jean from there. Otherwise of course it is better to avoid going there. But hey we have to see. (Original) C'est un fort, celui de Saint-Jean. Je vous le dit, c'est très vrai, alors allez-y si vous voulez voir le fort Saint-Jean de là-bas.

(Translated) This small museum is very pleasant to visit. Obviously you have to love the history of the army, but you also learn a lot about the history of the region and our people at the same time.
