Fort Crown Point was built by the combined efforts of both British and provincial troops (from New York and the New England Colonies) in North America in 1759 at a narrows on Lake Champlain on what later became the border between New York and Vermont. Erected to secure the region against the French, the fort is in upstate New York near the town of Crown Point and was the largest earthen fortress built in the United States. The fort's ruins, a National Historic Landmark, are now administered as part of Crown Point State Historic Site.

  • Il Fort Crown Point era una fortificazione britannica costruita dagli sforzi combinati delle truppe britanniche e provinciali (dalle colonie di New York e del New England) in Nord America nel 1759 a ridosso del lago Champlain, al confine tra l'attuale Stato di New York e il Vermont. Eretto per rendere sicura la regione contro i Francesi, il forte è situato vicino alla città di Crown Point, ed è stato il più grande forte di terra costruito negli Stati Uniti. Il sito è oggi gestito come Crown Point State Historic Site. (it)
  • Fort Crown Point ist ein Fort, das von den Briten 1759 am Lake Champlain an der Grenze zwischen Vermont und New York errichtet wurde. Das Fort wurde unter dem Kommando von Jeffrey Amherst errichtet. Nach dem Franzosen- und Indianerkrieg wurde nur noch eine kleine britische Besatzung im Fort belassen. Dies ermöglichte den Amerikanern, im Amerikanischen Unabhängigkeitskrieg das Fort einfach einzunehmen. Die Schlacht um das Fort (Schlacht um Crown Point) fand außerhalb des Forts statt – das Fort wurde seit seiner Errichtung nie direkt angegriffen. (de)
