Western Development Museum and Pioneer Village
This 110-acre site records the development of agriculture on
the Canadian Plains. A complete town of original buildings, including a grain
elevator, set the scene for a tourist's adventure into the world of early farm
machinery, steam-powered locomotives and the arts and crafts of Saskatchewan's
pioneers.
