Historic Attractions
Fort George National Historic Site
This historic military structure was the location for several battles during the War of 1812. The fort sits along the Niagara River, directly from Fort Niagara in New York. Many of the structures have been rebuilt to show the site of how it stood during its historical period in time, although the stone powder magazine is the only original building still intact. The fort was built in 1796 by the Britist Army after they withdrew from Fort Niagara due to Jay’s Treaty; the well known Major General Sir Isaac Brock served at the fort during the early periods of the war until he was later killed in battle.
Brock’s Monument National Historic Site
The monument stands with a 185 foot column that is dedicated to Major General Sir Isaac Brock who fought during the War of 1812. The monument you see today was built in the mid-1850s and replaced an earlier monument to the Major General that stood from 1824-1840.
