Fort Victoria was a fur trading post of the Hudson’s Bay Company, the headquarters of HBC operations in British Columbia. The fort was the beginnings of a settlement that eventually grew into the modern Victoria, British Columbia, the capital city of British Columbia.
The only extant remains of the fort include the palisade, two bastions and three mooring rings located west of the fort site in Victoria Harbour, adjacent to the Custom House.
