Site of French Fort Ste. Anne
Vermont's oldest settlement
On this shore was the site of Fort Ste. Anne built in 1666 by Capt. Pierre La Motte for defense against the Mohawks. The Jesuits celebrated the first Mass and erected the first Chapel. Though not permanent, this was Vermont's first white settlement.
Marker is on Shrine Road 0.1 miles north of St. Anne's Road.
