Fort Halifax is a former British colonial outpost on the banks of the Sebasticook River, just above its mouth at the Kennebec River, in Winslow, Maine. Originally built as a wooden palisaded fort in 1754, during the French and Indian War, only a single blockhouse survives. The oldest blockhouse in the United States, it is preserved as Fort Halifax State Historic Site, and is open to the public in the warmer months. The fort guarded Wabanaki canoe routes that reached to the St. Lawrence and Penobscot Valleys via the Chaudière-Kennebec and Sebasticook-Souadabscook rivers. The blockhouse was declared a National Historic Landmark and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1968.

(en) Le fort Halifax est un ancien ouvrage militaire construit lors de la guerre de la Conquête pour le gouvernement du Massachusetts. Il se trouve au confluent des rivières Sébasticook et Kennebec, dans l'actuel État du Maine. L'essentiel de l'ouvrage a été détruit dès le début du XIXe siècle. Cependant, un fortin a subsisté jusqu'en 1987, date a laquelle il a été emporté par une inondation et reconstruit. Le site est classé National Historic Landmark. (fr) Форт-Галифакс (англ. Fort Halifax) — старейший из сохранившихся в США блокгаузов. С 1968 года включен в реестр национальных исторических памятников. Форт был построен в 1754 году из брёвен на северном берегу реки в Кеннебек для защиты английских поселенцев от французов из Квебека и их индейских союзников. 1 апреля 1987 года наводнение разрушило блокгауз, некоторые брёвна нашли за 60 км вниз по течению. Однако, вскоре строение было восстановлено на прежнем месте большей частью из оригинального материала. (ru)
