Fort Calgary in Calgary — view 2
Fort Calgary is a historic site established in 1875 as a North-West Mounted Police outpost, pivotal in the development of Western Canada. The reconstructed fort features original buildings made of wood and earth, alongside exhibitions that explore the region's Indigenous history and the evolution of Calgary through the years. Plan for a couple of hours to engage with the interactive displays and take a guided tour. The adjacent Inglewood neighbourhood offers a mix of boutiques and cafes, making it a good spot to explore after your visit. The area can be busy during summer weekends, so consider visiting on a weekday for a quieter experience.
