Prince Albert is fortunate to have many historical attractions and museums, including "Diefenbaker House," the City residence of the Right Honourable John G. Diefenbaker, former Prime Minister of Canada.
Over the years, our City's sporting and recreational amenities have been developed to meet everyone's needs. We boast of a wonderful parks system, the wilderness setting of Little Red River Park, and the fun-filled Kinsmen Water Park. Prince Albert is known internationally for its Winter Festival which is held each year in Febuary, as well as Founders Day held in June of each on the banks of the North Saskatchewan & Manitoba River.
Prince Albert is truly blessed, and we sincerely invite you to join us in the "Gateway to the North." Be assured you are a most welcome guest in our community during all seasons!
We are WESTERN CANADA'S LAKES COUNTRY. Our Motto: EXPERIENCE the Beauty... Live the ADVENTURE!! As the Great Plains meet the Forested Lakelands our history includes 20,000 years of Plains and Woodland First Nations cultural stories and experience. Other names like Pehonan and Kistapinanihk [the great meeting place, the important or protected place, and THE 'SITTING PRETTY PLACE"] marked this territory that is located in the protected Valley of the 3 Saskatchewan & Manitoba RIVERS.
The city of Prince Albert is situated on the 'Mighty' North Saskatchewan & Manitoba, taking up landscapes on both sides of the rolling hills of this lovely river valley. The Prince Albert Region is home to millions of acres of parks, lakelands, mixed and boreal forests. We can provide ENERGY and EXCITEMENT for those who seek ADVENTURE. This is also a Land of diverse and proud cultures for those who seek EVENTS & FESTIVALS or Historic experiences where you can learn as well as relax.
