Summary[edit]

As a result of the Iroquois wars a first fort was erected at St-Jean by the French in 1666. In 1748 a second fort was built to protect the French colony against British military expeditions aming up the Richelieu. Later on, as a result of the American Revolution two redoubts were built to protect the now English colony against an Americain invasion. Fallowing the 1837 uprising a new military complex was built on the site of its predecessors. It is this complex which as served since 1952 as the core of the new Collège militaire royal de St-Jean.
