List of National Historic Sites of Canada in Alberta

As of March 2018, there are 61 National Historic Sites (French: Lieux historiques nationaux) in the province of Alberta, 16 of which are owned or administered by Parks Canada.[1][2] The first three sites in Alberta were designated in 1923: the site of rival trading posts Fort Augustus and Fort Edmonton, the site of the Frog Lake Massacre and the site of the first outpost of the North-West Mounted Police in Western Canada at Fort Macleod.[3]

Numerous National Historic Events also occurred across Alberta, and are identified at places associated with them, using the same style of federal plaque which marks National Historic Sites. Several National Historic Persons are commemorated throughout the province in the same way.
