A very beautiful cemetery. The landscaping and decoration of the space is superb!! Cleanliness and tidiness! Neat and cute tombstones!

My daughter and son-in-law's son were baptized, along with 2 other children, it was a nice ceremony. The priest also wanted to take a photo of the family, so she probably has a nice scrapbook by now.

A sad event, but we were well guided all the way by both the priest and the engraver. The digger has been fantastic in helping my mother find a grave site and good support during the funeral.

Citadelle of Quebec

The Citadelle of Quebec is an active military installation and official residence of both the Canadian monarch and the Governor General of Canada. It is located atop Cap Diamant, adjoining the Plains of Abraham in Quebec City. The citadel is the oldest military building in Canada, and forms part of the fortifications of Quebec City, which is one of only two cities in North America still surrounded by fortifications, the other being Campeche, Mexico.

The first fortifications in Quebec were built by the Governor General of New France Louis de Buade, and completed just in time for the Battle of Quebec in 1690.

After the British conquest in the second half of the 18th century, the problem of Quebec City's defences grew more acute.
