WELCOME TO
THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE FOR WOLSELEY!
Wolseley is a small community
100 km east of Regina made up of historic landmarks, residences,
businesses, a lake and a swinging bridge.
This
idyllic small town was established in 1898 and was a hub of
activity from the peanut line that ran through the town. The
CPR needed a place to refill their steam engines so they dammed
Wolf Creek to establish an adequate supply of water. So that is
where the town around a lake was created.
The name Wolseley originated
from a Canadian Forces General, Garnet Joseph Wolseley, who was
a part of the Riel Rebellion from 1869-1970.
Some of our many historical
landmarks include:
·
Town Hall/Opera
House
·
Wolseley & District
Museum
·
Wolseley Court
House
·
Swinging Bridge
Wolseley
has a large number of other interesting and historic buildings
to see. Come and visit and pick up a copy of the Heritage Tour
booklet from the Town Office, Wolseley & District Museum, Weird
Willies Esso Station, Wolseley Tourist Booth, or the Wolf Creek
Friendship Centre and take a historic walk through our town.
