Fort Le Boeuf (often referred to as Fort de la Rivière au Bœuf) was a fort established by the French in 1753 on a fork of French Creek in present-day Waterford in northwest Pennsylvania. The fort was part of a line that included Fort Presque Isle Fort Machault and Fort Duquesne. The fort was located about 15 miles (24 km) from the shores of Lake Erie on the banks of LeBoeuf Creek which the fort was named for.
