Citadel Hill is a hill that is a National Historic Site in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Four fortifications have been constructed on Citadel Hill since 1749, and were referred to as Fort George—but only the third fort was officially named Fort George. General Orders of October 20, 1798, ordered it named after Prince Edward's father, King George III. The first two and the fourth and current fort, were officially called the Halifax Citadel. The last is a concrete star fort.
