It is a short 10-minute walk from the <strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fairmont.fr\/frontenac-quebec\/\" target=\"_blank\">Fairmont Ch\u00e2teau Frontenac<\/a> <\/strong>and a 2-minute walk from the Parliament Building.\u00a0 The Citadel stands as the largest of its kind in North America. Constructed between 1820 and 1850 on top of Cape Diamond (Cap Diamant in French), it served as a final refuge for the British army and as a bastion to safeguard Quebec\u2014and all of Canada\u2014from potential American invasions. Its imposing stature and strategic position have earned it the nickname of  &#8220;The Gibraltar of the Americas.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fearing a possible American attack, various military structures were built during the British Regime, including the<strong> <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pc.gc.ca\/apps\/dfhd\/page_nhs_eng.aspx?id=693\" target=\"_blank\">Martello Towers<\/a><\/strong>  and the Citadel. Note that it is at the Citadel that we find the oldest intact gate of the old city fortifications: the Dalhousie Gate. On the L\u00e9vis side, Forts 1,2 and 3 were built. Fortunately, the Americans never attacked Quebec again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-spacer ugb-spacer ugb-080c602 ugb-spacer--v2 ugb-main-block\"><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><div class=\"ugb-spacer--inner\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"entry-content-asset\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Citadelle de Qu\u00e9bec SUMMER ENG\" width=\"1140\" height=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/okxCqb1jmzs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-spacer ugb-spacer ugb-20322b4 ugb-spacer--v2 ugb-main-block\"><style>@media screen and (min-width:768px){.ugb-20322b4.ugb-spacer{height:50px !important}}<\/style><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><div class=\"ugb-spacer--inner\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Citadel on my Quebec City tours  <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When I&#8217;m guiding visitors from France, they often recognize the distinct shape of our Citadel, which echoes the designs of the renowned French engineer, Vauban. This star fort configuration is a familiar sight in cities like Lille, Arras, Strasbourg, N\u00eemes, and numerous others across Europe. However, when I&#8217;m with guests from the United States, they&#8217;re often taken aback to discover that the Citadel was constructed as a defense against American invasion. Many are surprised to learn that the American Army actually launched two attacks on Canada prior to the Citadel&#8217;s construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can understand why I always highlight the Citadel during my Quebec City tours. Yet, I don&#8217;t typically go inside it on my tours. The Citadelle truly a world unto itself and that&#8217;s why I definitely recommend embarking on a comprehensive guided tour of this bastion. Their Citadel guides are exceptional, boasting extensive knowledge not only about the Citadel but also about Canada&#8217;s military history as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Royal 22e R\u00e9giment  <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time of the First World War, the Canadian Army\u2019s official language was English. That means that French-Canadian did not want to join the army. It wasn\u2019t easy, but eventually, the Canadian Army created it\u2019s the first French-speaking <strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Infantry\">infantry <\/a><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Regiment\" target=\"_blank\">regiment<\/a><\/strong> known at the time as the 22nd Battalion. They have won several battles of honor and got the title of &#8221;Royal&#8221;. The Citadel has been the Royal 22e Regiment&#8217;s home base since 1920. That mans that this fortress is still an active military base.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DSC_0053-1024x680.jpg\" alt=\"changing of the guard citadelle quebec\" class=\"wp-image-8378\" width=\"512\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DSC_0053-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DSC_0053-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DSC_0053-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DSC_0053-1536x1020.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DSC_0053-2048x1360.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DSC_0053-136x90.jpg 136w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DSC_0053-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DSC_0053-394x262.jpg 394w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DSC_0053-915x608.jpg 915w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DSC_0053-1240x824.jpg 1240w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DSC_0053-1626x1080.jpg 1626w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Changing of the Guard Ceremony performed by the Royal 22nd Regiment (photo taken before COVID)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2024 update: the Changing of the Guard Ceremony will be substituted with live musical performances by the Royal 22nd Regiment Band.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Unfortunately, since COVID, the famous Changing of the Guard Ceremony has not resumed.<\/strong> However, starting from June 24th until September 1st, the Changing of the Guard ceremony will be substituted with live musical performances by the Royal 22nd Regiment Band.

The Noon-Day Gun Tradition<br><\/strong>Every day at noon, a cannon blast echoes from the citadel, resonating across the fortress and its surrounding environs.<br>This custom, entrenched in the Citadelle&#8217;s history, dates back to the arrival of the Royal Canadian Artillery&#8217;s garrison in 1871. Initially, two cannons fired daily. The first, precisely at noon, served to synchronize the city&#8217;s residents&#8217; watches, signaling lunchtime or marking the Angelus, the midday prayer. The second cannon sounded at 9:30 p.m., announcing the curfew for gunners and any soldiers within the city limits. This tradition passed to the Royal 22e R\u00e9giment upon its assumption of the garrison, enduring until 1994. It was resurrected in 2008 to commemorate Qu\u00e9bec City&#8217;s 400th anniversary.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"alignfull wp-block-ugb-team-member ugb-team-member ugb-954053d ugb-team-member--v3 ugb-team-member--design-plain ugb-team-member--columns-1 ugb-main-block ugb-main-block--inner-center ugb--has-block-background\"><style>.ugb-954053d .ugb-img{-webkit-mask-image:url('data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCAxMDAgMTAwIj48Y2lyY2xlIGN4PSI1MCIgY3k9IjUwIiByPSI1MCI+PC9jaXJjbGU+PC9zdmc+');mask-image:url('data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCAxMDAgMTAwIj48Y2lyY2xlIGN4PSI1MCIgY3k9IjUwIiByPSI1MCI+PC9jaXJjbGU+PC9zdmc+')}.ugb-954053d.ugb-team-member{background-color:#eeeeee}.ugb-954053d.ugb-team-member:before{background-color:#eeeeee}<\/style><div class=\"ugb-inner-block ugb-inner-block--center\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><div class=\"ugb-team-member__item ugb-team-member__item1\"><div class=\"ugb-team-member__image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"514\" height=\"523\" class=\"ugb-img wp-image-201 ugb-img--shape\" src=\"http:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/tour-guide-quebec-city.jpg\" alt=\"Marie-Pierre Lessard\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/tour-guide-quebec-city.jpg 514w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/tour-guide-quebec-city-295x300.jpg 295w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/tour-guide-quebec-city-60x61.jpg 60w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/tour-guide-quebec-city-79x80.jpg 79w, https:\/\/nomadtoursquebec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/tour-guide-quebec-city-298x303.jpg 298w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 514px) 100vw, 514px\" \/><\/div><div class=\"ugb-team-member__content\"><div class=\"ugb-team-member__title\"><h4 class=\"ugb-team-member__name\">Marie-Pierre Lessard<\/h4><p class=\"ugb-team-member__position\">Quebec City Tour Guide, Business Owner and Blogger<\/p><\/div><p class=\"ugb-team-member__description\">En 2015, j'ai lanc\u00e9 ma propre entreprise de tourisme, Nomad Tours Qu\u00e9bec.
