Partridge Island

About this place

Partridge Island National Historic Site in Saint John, New Brunswick, is a historically significant, 23-acre island at the mouth of the harbour. Established in 1830 as North America’s first quarantine station, it served as a critical immigration hub and, during the 1847 typhus epidemic, a site of tragedy. It is known for its former quarantine station, lighthouse, and military ruins
