The Grand-Pré National
Historic Site of Canada is the most
important historic site for the Acadian
people. It is a pilgrimage site for Acadians and
the world Centre for commemorating their Deportation.
The historic site highlights the period between the Acadian
colonisation of 1682 and the deportations that
began in 1755. It brings to mind the most
painful and the most heroic hours of the Acadians, and will stand as an
example and a future reminder for generations to come, of a very
courageous people.
The three main themes at
Grand-Pré are the Expulsion of the Acadians, life in Acadie before the
Deportations, and the profound attachment Acadians from all
over the world have for Grand-Pré...
