    Fort St. Joseph is a historic British fortification located on St. Joseph Island in Ontario, Canada. It was built in 1796 AD after the British lost Fort Mackinac to the United States, serving as a strategic post to maintain influence over the upper Great Lakes and Indigenous alliances. The fort played a key role in the War of 1812, serving as the launching point for the British and Indigenous capture of Fort Mackinac.
