Fort Frederick (1758—1777, earlier Fort Menagoueche, superseded by Fort Howe in 1777) was a British fort at what is now Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada. It was built during the St. John River Campaign of the French and Indian War. It was one of three significant forts which the British built on the major rivers in the Northeast to cut off the natives' water way to the ocean to prevent attacks on the British settlers (see also Fort Halifax and Fort Pownall).

| - Le Fort Frederick était une fortification britannique construite pendant la guerre de Sept Ans, dont les vestiges sont situés près de l'ancien emplacement du Fort Charnisay. Il a été construit pendant la campagne du fleuve Saint-Jean en 1758. Il fut l'un des trois forts importants (avec le fort Halifax et le fort Pownall) que les Britanniques ont construit sur les grands fleuves dans le nord-est afin de couper aux Amérindiens l'accès à l'océan via les voies navigables que constituaient la Kennebec, le Penobscot et le fleuve Saint-Jean.

| - Fort Frederick (1758—1777, earlier Fort Menagoueche, superseded by Fort Howe in 1777) was a British fort at what is now Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada. It was built during the St. John River Campaign of the French and Indian War. It was one of three significant forts which the British built on the major rivers in the Northeast to cut off the natives' water way to the ocean to prevent attacks on the British settlers (see also Fort Halifax and Fort Pownall). On September 13, 1758, Robert Monckton and a strong force of regulars and rangers (Gorham's Rangers, Danks' Rangers and Rogers' Rangers) left Halifax, and arrived at the mouth of the St. John River a week later. He established a new base of operations by reconstructing Fort Menagoueche, which had been destroyed in 1755, and which he renamed Fort Frederick. Establishing Fort Frederick allowed the British to virtually cut off the communications and supplies to the villages on the St. John River. (Fort Frederick (Maine) was decommissioned the following year.) During the American Revolution, American Privateers pillaged and burned Fort Frederick in the Raid on St. John (1775). After the St. John River expedition, under the command of Gilfred Studholme, the fort was replaced with Fort Howe to the north across the St. John River in 1777. (en)
