Battle of the Chateauguay National Historic Site of Canada

The Battle of the Châteauguay National Historic Site commemorates the Battle of Châteauguay, fought on October 26, 1813. This significant engagement saw Canadian troops, led by Lieutenant Colonel Charles-Michel de Salaberry, effectively repel a larger American force attempting to invade Quebec. The site features a museum with exhibits detailing the battle, colonial military life, and weaponry. A unique highlight is the introductory tour and the battlefield mock-up with illuminated displays that vividly recreate the events of the battle. While somewhat remote, the site offers a detailed interpretation of this important moment in Canadian history.
