The British Empire gained control of North America after defeating French troops during the 1759 Battle of the Plains of Abraham.
The Plains of Abraham Museum presents exhibitions about the siege of Quebec through archaeological artifacts and historical documents from the French regime.
Visitors can explore 13.9 kilometers of trails for cross-country skiing in winter and participate in outdoor concerts during summer months.
