2
Built in 1796, Fort George was the scene of fierce engagements during the War of 1812. It was captured and destroyed, then refortified by the Americans in 1813. It was retaken by the British later that same year. The fort was abandoned in the 1820s, and only the original stone powder magazine survives today. Fort George was reconstructed between 1937 and 1940.
