Summary

DescriptionCabot Tower - Signal Hill.jpg	English: Cabot Tower on Signal Hill in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The tower was built (commencing in 1898) to commemorate the 400th anniversary of John Cabot's discovery of Newfoundland, and Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee. In 1901, Guglielmo Marconi received the first trans-Atlantic wireless message at a position near the tower. The tower is at the centre of the Signal Hill National Historic Site of Canada. Français : La tour Cabot au sommet du Signal Hill surplombant la ville de Saint-Jean (Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador, Canada). La tour Cabot a été construite entre 1898 et 1900 dans le but de commémorer le 400e anniversaire du voyage de Jean Cabot, ainsi que le 60e anniversaire du règne de la reine Victoria. La tour est particulièrement célèbre pour être l'endroit qui a reçu la première transmission transatlantique de la voix humaine par Guglielmo Marconi. Signal Hill a été désigné lieu historique national du Canada le 30 mai 1951.
