Step back in time and discover one of British Columbia’s most unique heritage destinations. Fort Steele Heritage Town brings the 1890s to life with historic buildings, costumed interpreters, working trades, farm animals, wagon rides, and hands-on experiences for all ages. Wander down dusty streets, watch a blacksmith at work, pan for gold, visit the print shop, and experience the sights, sounds, and stories of a bustling frontier town.

Whether you’re enjoying a fresh treat from the bakery, meeting our famous Clydesdales, exploring with the family, or simply soaking in the atmosphere, every visit offers something new to discover. With special events, interactive demonstrations, and plenty of opportunities to make memories, Fort Steele is more than a museum—it’s a place where history comes alive.
