Evaqngeline

Inspired by the story of the Deportation at Grand-Pre, in 1847, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow published the poem Evangeline. The success of the poem helped create Grand-Pre National Historic Site. In 1920, the Dominion Atlantic Railway erected the statue of Evangeline. I don't know why we missed getting a good picture of the statute....but we did. In one of the earlier church pictures you can see where it's location is.
