About the Park
What began as a Canada Centennial project in 1967 to reconstruct the old Fort Edmonton quickly grew to encompass much more. Thanks to the dedicated efforts of the Rotary Club of Edmonton and the Fort Edmonton Foundation, the Park features the 1846 Hudson’s Bay Fort as well as the Streets of 1885, 1905, and 1920, which depict the evolution of Edmonton’s early history.
As a valued City of Edmonton attraction, Fort Edmonton Park is poised for an exciting future.
