Arts & Culture

Like many towns on the prairie, Claresholm was settled by homesteaders that came to the area with hope in their hearts and the promise of free land. Cattle and agriculture are fundamental to Claresholm to this day, but the town has flourished into a thriving business and recreational centre as well. Its 3,758 citizens enjoy a myriad of great services and facilities, and are happy to welcome visitors from all over to the town’s many attractions. History buffs will appreciate Claresholm’s connection to flight training. From 1941-45, the town was home to the Number 15 Service Flying Training School, where thousands of pilots who served the Commonwealth earned their wings. The Harvard Memorial

35 min drive from here. Winter: 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. Seven days a week.Summer: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. " In 1981, the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) designated Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump as a World Heritage Site placing it among other world heritage monuments such as the Egyptian pyramids, Stonehenge and the Galapagos Islands." Very interesting and historically informative. You go up to the top floor and explore the buffalo jump, then go back inside for a look at the history of the jump inside the museum. Interesting for kids as there are hands on activities as well as a short film about the jump. Great historic site.

The Bar U Ranch National Historic Site visitor centre includes a reception area, fireside lounge, heritage displays, video theatre, restaurant, gift shop and restroom facilities. Visitors can make the short walk from the visitor centre down to the historic ranch headquarters or take a horse-drawn wagon shuttle. Ride into history on a wagon pulled by Percheron horses to discover the life of a ranching cowboy from the late 1800s at the Bar U Ranch National Historic Site. Try your hand at cowboy skills, learn about the old-style ranching ways, wander through the rustic and authentic buildings or sit around the campfire and listen to old-time tales.
