Mountie Statue at Fort Calgary, Calgary, Ghid vizitatori și ce de văzut în apropiere

The Mountie Statue at Fort Calgary stands at 802 8 St SE in Calgary, Alberta. It marks the Fort Calgary site and gives visitors a landmark to pause at on a walk through this part of the city.

Tips for your visit

• Plan on a short stop of 10 to 15 minutes for the statue itself, or longer if you also explore the wider Fort Calgary site.
• Look for any plaque or sign near the statue, as it is the quickest way to learn what it commemorates.
• Daylight is best for photos and for reading any inscriptions. Check current opening hours and access for the Fort Calgary grounds before you go.
• Combine the visit with a walk around the surrounding neighbourhood rather than making a separate trip.
