Discover some of the stories that make the lands at Fort Calgary a historically layered and meaningful site. Explore museum exhibits about Treaty 7, Métis influence in Alberta and the founding and early stages of the city of Calgary. Check out the replica 1888 Barracks for special exhibitions, then take a self-guided audio tour of the parklands at the confluence of the Bow and Elbow rivers — a place of significance to Indigenous peoples since long before 1875, when the Northwest Mounted Police established Fort Calgary. Fort Calgary offers a variety of regular programs throughout the year. Fort Calgary just started a 50/50 fundraiser campaign that will help revitalize the lands at Fort Calgary. Uncle Trent spoke with Rebekah Jarvais of Fort Calgary about how the public can take part in the promotion.
