Learn more about hotels in Prince Rupert

The city of Prince Rupert shares a name with an illustrious historical figure - Prince Rupert of the Rhine, Duke of Cumberland. He blazed a formidable trail through life, wearing titles such as army officer, admiral, scientist, and colonial governor, all under the crown of the royal Stuart family of England and Scotland. A skilled military tactician, Rupert made his mark during the English Civil War as a Royalist general, only to be banished and later resurface as a leading figure under King Louis XIV of France.

His voyages took him not only across the European battlefields but also to the vast waters of the Caribbean Sea as a privateer. Upon the Restoration of the monarchy, Rupert brought his diverse talents to serve the Royal Navy with great contributions to its doctrine and development. Ultimately, he played a significant role as the first governor of the Hudson's Bay Company, aiding in the formation of the political geography of modern-day Canada. Amalgamate his tales of political intrigue, military prowess and colonial expansion, and the vibrancy of Prince Rupert captivates all.
