Heritage Park Historical Village

Heritage Park Historical Village, located in Calgary, AB, is a sprawling open-air living history museum that offers visitors a unique glimpse into the lives and experiences of early Western Canadians. Spanning over 127 acres, the park features over 200 exhibits and attractions, including historical buildings, costumed interpreters, and interactive activities.
