The altar in the vestry of Sacred Heart Church in Johnstown is reported to have come from Fortress Louisbourg before the final siege.[1]Royal Canadian Ordnance Corps Depot Johnstown A large concrete reserve ammunition magazine for the major naval gun batteries in Sydney Harbour and Canso Strait was built at Johnstown.[2] Opened in the fall of 1943, the complex consisted of 3 magazines, similar to the ones at Debert, Nova Scotia and McGivney, New Brunswick. Post-War, the site was used as a sub-depot of No, 31 Ordnance Depot in Debert, staffed by a single Private. The depot closed on 18 March 1957. All that remains is the laboratory building on the west side of Highway 4, south of Johnstown, now a private residence.[3] References1. ^Johnstown altar could have Louisbourg link. Chronicle Herald.
