Welcome to Wolseley

Wolseley, Saskatchewan, was settled by early homesteaders and named in 1882 by C.P.R. surveyors in honour of British soldier Sir Garnet Wolseley. Initially called Wolf Creek due to the area’s wolf population, Wolseley was incorporated as a town in 1898.

The community has preserved its history through the restoration of heritage buildings and its commitment to conservation, earning recognition as one of Canada’s prettiest towns in 2000. Notable landmarks include the Beaver Lumber office, Town Hall/Opera House, Banbury House Inn, and the Wolseley Swinging Bridge.

Originally a railroad and farming hub, Wolseley has grown into a vibrant, picturesque town.
