Rocanville’s history

Collection

The Rocanville area has a long history tied to the fur trade. In 1785 Fort Espérance was built here, and the archaeological site is believed to hold the remains of two late 18th- and early 19th-century forts. It was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1944.
