Spanning 64 hectares (158 acres) along Edmonton’s river valley, Fort Edmonton Park is a beautiful wooded parkland named after the first enduring European post in the area. It is also the largest living history museum in the country.
The park is made up of four sections, each representing a different era, namely the fort of 1846, 1885 Street, 1905 Street, and 1920 Street, and visitors are invited to explore the various sections on a fully functional steam train that travels the length of the park.
Visitors to the park can also use horse-drawn carriages, streetcars, and automobiles to get around the park, and during national holidays and long weekends, costumed historical interpreters are on hand to interact with visitors, share the history of the park, and answer any questions.
