Lonely Planet review for Fort Prince of Wales

It took 40 years to build and its cannons never fired a shot, but the star-shaped stone Fort Prince of Wales has been standing prominently on rocky Eskimo Point across the Churchill River since the 1770s. As English-French tensions mounted in the 1720s, HBC selected the site for presence and strategy, but surrendered during the first French attack. The walls are currently under a stabilization project but the site can still be toured.
