About Cap-Haitien (Cap-Haïtien)
Cap-Haïtien is a port city on the north coast of Haiti. It's known for its French colonial architecture. Facing the Place de la Cathédrale is the landmark early-20th-century Notre-Dame Cathedral. Northwest of the city, beaches include sandy Cormier. South, Laferrière Citadel is a hilltop fortress built by revolutionary leader Henri Christophe. The ruins of his 1813 Sans-Souci Palace are in the nearby town of Milot.
