Dalhousie Gate
The main entrance to the Citadel of Québec, Dalhousie Gate is the only one that was not rebuilt in the 20th century to accommodate automobile traffic. It appears in Hawkins’s Picture of Quebec, published in 1834. It depicts the area as it appeared at a time when the military presence in the city was still considerable.
