A historic day trip to the Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic Site. Where French soldiers march down the streets of town as ladies dance in formal parlours. Cannon fire shakes the ground as harpsichord tunes mingle with baking bread aromas drifting from the stone bakery. Step through Louisbourg's fortress walls and time-warp back to the 1700’s. Chat with fishermen, sailors, and servants. Watch lacemaking as stew simmers on an open-hearth fire. It’s so real, it seems surreal. Then visit Cape Breton’s Miners Museum. Browse the modern exhibits paying tribute to the region's long and rich history of coal mining. The museum is also home to the famous choir of miners 'The Men of the Deeps'.
