Wayne Melanson, Parks Canada Heritage Interpreter, Port Royal, 1605, Acadia- Nova Scotia

"Nearly 400 years, in 1605, French fur traders built a habitation on this site.

It was the first European attempt at permanent settlement in north of Florida.

What challenges and hardships did these men face as they tried to adapt to a strange new land and its harsh climate?

We invite you to visit the reconstruction of their settlement and discover life in 17th century Acadia".
