UNESCO World Heritage

The Deportation Cross was erected in 1924 to mark the location from which the Acadians were deported in 1755. It was relocated to Horton Landing (Vieux Logis) in 2005, closer to the area where Acadian families boarded small boats to transport them to the ships for their forced exile to New England colonies.
