Historic
Attractions & Museums - Bell Island
Bell Island was the only place in North America
to have seen enemy action in World War II. The pier where 80.000 tons of
iron ore was stored for shipping, was torpedoed in 1942. At low tide you
can see relics of the 4 ships that were sunk during the attack and on
shore stands a memorial to the 69 men who lost their lives.
