Fort Niagara


This is Fort Niagara, which is in the United States, from a park bench in Niagara-on-the-Lake, which is in Canada. Originally built in 1678 to protect New France it was rebuilt several times. It saw action in the mid 1700's in the French-Indian Wars. It was captured by the British during the war of 1812. It has been in U.S. control since.
