One of Alberta’s oldest communities, St. Albert was established in 1861 and named after Father Albert Lacombe. Just minutes north of Edmonton, it’s known as the “Botanical Arts City” in acknowledgement of all it values, enjoys, and celebrates. Stroll the banks of the Sturgeon River or try your luck during fishing season, and visit spots like the Arden Theatre, City Hall, St. Albert Grain Elevator Park, and the Musée Héritage gallery and museum.
