Fort Sainte Anne (1639 to 1641) & Simon Denys Fort (1650-1659) (1639 to 1641, 1650-1659) - Two French colonial military forts located at present-day Englishtown, Victoria County, Nova Scotia, Canada. Fort Sainte Anne was built by Captain Charles Daniel (1629) after he raided Baleine.
June 26, 1629: Captain Charles Daniel making for Quebec, is driven to shore by a storm and seeks refuge at St. Ann's Bay, Cape Breton. Daniel builds there a fort, Fort Sainte-Anne "with dwelling, a chapel, and a magazine."
The fort was occupied from 1639 to 1641. Two other military forts were eventually built adjacent to the fort: Simon Denys Fort (1650-1659) and Fort Dauphin (1713-1758).
