Fort Plaisance
Fort Plaisance was a French fort built in the 17th century on the island of Newfoundland at the time of the New France. In 1662, the French established a strategic trading post in a well protected cove overlooking Placentia Bay that separates Avalon from the rest of the island of Newfoundland, located close to Grand Banks. To protect this place, several forts were built around the cove, Fort Plaisance in 1662, Fort Royal in 1687, and Fort Saint Louis in 1690. Fort Plaisance was built inside the harbor in order to protect the small port city of Plaisance from an attack enemy.
