Fort York
|
 |
|
Established by Lieutenant Governor Simcoe in 1793 to defend "little muddy York," as Toronto was then known, Americans sacked Fort York in 1813. You can tour the soldiers' and officers' quarters, clamber over the ramparts, and view demonstrations. The fort really comes to life in summer, with daily demonstrations of drill, music, and cooking. The fort is a few blocks west of the CN Tower and 2 blocks east of Exhibition Place.
