Caption, top, left (English / French): The importance of Signal Hill to St. John's goes beyond its guns, signal masts and hospitals. Poet, songwriters and artists alike have celebrated the Hill's timeless strength. It has become a proud symbol of endurance for the City below. / L'importance de Signal Hill pour St. John's va bien au del de ses canons, de ses mâts de signalisation et de ses hôpitaux.
