Located in Horton&#39;s Landing, this cross is a memorial site of the Deportation of the Acadians. &nbsp;From Hortonville, follow Wharf Road and&nbsp;the Cross will be located at the very end of the road, directly after a farm located on your right. Please Watch Out for farming equipment and children in the area!<br /><br />Forged from wrought iron in the Gothic style, the Cross bears the following inscription:<br />&quot;The dry bed of the creek which is in sight, a few paces in the marsh is the spot where the victims of the Expulsion of the Acadians of 1755 were embarked on the small boats to be rowed over to the transports lying at anchor in Minas Basin.&quot;<br /><br />A few meters away is a monument dedicated to the Planters who arrived in the region after 1755.<br /><br />Take the time to visit Mosquito Point. The working model dyke and modern aboiteau demonstrate Acadian techniques used to master tides and land in order to pursue their agriculture.<br /><br /><br />Photo: Pauline Naillon
