Fort Crevier is a French fort built near the Saint-François River in Quebec. In 1687, near Saint-François-du-Lac, the fort was built by Jean Crevier de Saint-François. It was also known as Fort Saint-François. The fort's purpose was to defend the French inhabitants in the region against Iroquois attacks encouraged by the British. It was attacked by the Iroquois in November 1689, and again in August 1693, when Crevier was killed. The fort became an integral part of the Abenaki village of Saint-François in 1700, and was abandoned following the end of hostilities with the Iroquois in 1701. The village was destroyed on 4 October 1759 by Rogers' Rangers (under Major Robert Rogers). The population was decimated. The village became Odanak afterwards.

À la suite des traités de paix signés entre 1697 et 1701, le fort devient caduc. Il est alors occupé par les Abénaquis avant d'être détruit le 4 octobre 1759 par les troupes Rangers du major Robert Rogers. Décimés, les Abénaquis se relocalisent à Odanak par après. (fr)
