Plains of Abraham

The Plains of Abraham are a 98-hectare plateau of lawns and woods on the cliff above the St. Lawrence in Quebec City, between the Citadelle and Grande Allée. The British victory here on 13 September 1759 led to the fall of New France; since 1908 the land has been a park run by the National Battlefields Commission, with Martello towers and a museum.
