Citadel Hill, Halifax, is one of Nova Scotia's most important historic sites. The Citadel was Britain's answer to the French Fortress of Louisbourg in the fierce tit-for-tat power struggles of the seventeenth century. Halifax is many things to a Nova Scotian - capital, university town, cultural centre and port.
