Carleton Martello Tower



The Carleton Martello Tower in Saint John, New Brunswick is one of only nine remaining Martello Towers in Canada.   The tower is the oldest build in the city and dates back to the War of 1812 and played a large role in the war.  The Saint John Tower has gone many restorations such as the powder magazine, restored barracks room it features exhibits in the tower and in the visitor center.  The Martello roof top offers an amazing view of the harbor and the city.  The tower has been part of the National Historic Site of Canada since 1930 and has been open to the public since 1963.
