Established in 1970, the three-acre Fort Saskatchewan Museum and Historic Site at 10006 - 100 Avenue is ideally located in the heart of Fort Saskatchewan, near Legacy and Jarvis Parks and the historic CN Station. At the site there are eight heritage buildings furnished with period pieces that form a picturesque historic village serenely overlooking the North Saskatchewan River. New in 2011 is the 1875-1885 North West Mounted Police Fort.
Visitors are encouraged to make a "day of it," experiencing the ambiance of a bygone era and enjoying their own snack or lunch at one of the museum's picnic tables or opting for the excellent fare served up by one of the nearby restaurants in downtown Fort Saskatchewan! The Museum Giftshop is a treasure that offers unique Fort Saskatchewan souvenirs and gifts.
