Annapolis Royal - Habitation Port-Royal 
Outside Annapolis Royal, about 10km (6mi) to the north on the north bank of the Annapolis River, stands the Habitation Port-Royal settlement of Sieur des Monts, which has been faithfully restored. The whole complex is now an historic monument.
The plain wooden buildings are in early 17th C style. There is a Governor's Residence, a Priest's House, a smithy and a room in which the Indians used to barter their furs for European goods.
