PLACE
FORT LA TOUR

OPENING IN SPRING 2024

Place Fort La Tour is located on Harbour Passage on the Bay of Fundy in Saint John, New Brunswick. It commemorates 5700+ years of changing ceremonial, commercial, and industrial uses of this special place. The site of treachery, intrigue, and a memorable battle in early Acadian times, Place Fort La Tour provides today’s visitors with experiences and structures that are evocative of these stories and a current day meeting place, much like it has always been.

PLACE FORT LA TOUR WOULD LIKE TO RECOGNIZE THAT OUR MEETING PLACE IS HELD ON THE TRADITIONAL AND UNCEDED TERRITORY OF THE WOLASTOQIYIK (MALISEET), THE MI’KMAQ, AND THE PESKOTOMUHKHATI (PASSAMAQUODDY) NATIONS.

PLACE FORT LA TOUR OUR COMMITMENT TO TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION IS BASED ON A FOUNDATIONAL RESPECT FOR INDIGENOUS CULTURE AND HERITAGE AND A DESIRE TO ENGAGE IN MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIPS.
