Fort Stikine was a fur trade post and fortification in what is now the Alaska Panhandle, at the site of the present-day of Wrangell, Alaska. Originally built as the Redoubt San Dionisio or Redoubt Saint Dionysius (Russian: Форт or Редут Святого Дионисия, r Fort or Redut Svyatogo Dionisiya) in 1834, the site was transferred to the British-owned Hudson's Bay Company as part of a lease signed in the region in 1838, and renamed Fort Stikine when turned into a Hudson's Bay Company post in 1839. The post was closed and decommissioned by 1843 but the name remained for the large village of the Stikine people which had grown around it, becoming known as Shakesville in reference to its ruling Chief Shakes by the 1860s. With the Alaska Purchase of 1867, the fortification became occupied by the US Arm

  • Fort Stikine était un poste de traite de fourrures et une fortification dans ce qui est maintenant l'Alaska du Sud-Est, sur le site actuel de Wrangell, en Alaska, aux États-Unis. Construit à l'origine sous le nom de Redoute San Dionisio ou Redoute Saint Dionysius (russe : Форт ou Редут Святого Дионисия, r Fort ou Redut Svyatogo Dionisiya) en 1834, le site fut transféré à la Compagnie britannique de la Baie d'Hudson dans le cadre d'un bail signé dans la région en 1838, et rebaptisé Fort Stikine lorsqu'il fut transformé en poste de la Compagnie en 1839. Le poste a été fermé et désaffecté en 1843, mais le nom du grand village du peuple Stikine qui s'était développé autour de lui est resté, devenant connu sous le nom de Shakesville en référence à son chef Shakes au pouvoir dans les années 1860 (fr)
