Introduction

Heritage Park Historical Village is a large living-history park in Calgary on the Glenmore Reservoir, recreating Alberta life from 1860s Indigenous and fur-trade days to early-20th-century westward settlement. Over a hundred relocated heritage buildings, an antique steam train, streetcar and paddlewheeler, plus costumed interpreters staging old trades and markets, bring the past to life. For a one-stop grasp of the prairie province's story, it is Calgary's signature family-culture destination.
