Quebec City’s defensive system is a remarkable feat of engineering that took shape during the colonial period through the successive contributions of several engineers. Gaspard-J. Chaussegros de Léry (1682-1750) holds an important place in Canadian history for his considerable work in New France, and the ramparts of Quebec City stand as a major example of his accomplishments.
