    St. Andrews Blockhouse is a historic military structure located in St. Andrews, New Brunswick, Canada. Built by local residents in 1812 AD during the War of 1812, it was constructed to defend the town and its harbor from potential American attacks. The blockhouse, made of wood and designed for small-scale defense, is one of the few surviving examples of its kind in Canada.
