Childhood home of General James Wolfe, victor of the Battle of Quebec (1759)
Join us at Quebec House in 2018 as we celebrate 100 years of looking after this special place. To mark the century since the house was bequeathed to the National Trust we will have a number of exciting events as well as new interpretation to bring General James Wolfe’s story to life.
Explore this fascinating house, the childhood home of General James Wolfe. Discover the dramatic battle that won America for the British and learn of Wolfe's tragic death, in our exhibition.
Travel back in time and see the house as it appeared in the 1730s when James Wolfe and his family lived here. Fall asleep on our replica 18th-century bed, or take your chances with Mrs Wolfe’s ‘cure for consumption’ in the kitchen.
Afterwards sit back and relax with a cup of tea in Mrs Wolfe’s charming 18th-century garden.

Gift Aid Admission includes a 10 per cent or more voluntary donation. Gift Aid Admissions let us reclaim tax on the whole amount paid - an extra 25 per cent - potentially a very significant boost to our places' funds.
An extra £1 paid under the scheme can be worth over £3 to the National Trust as shown below:
