Fort Carlton, Hudson's Bay Company trading fort in Duck Lake, Canada

Fort Carlton stands along the North Saskatchewan River with reconstructed buildings showcasing the Red River frame architectural style of early Canadian settlements.

Established in 1810, Fort Carlton operated as a vital fur trade depot until 1885, when it was destroyed during the North-West Resistance.

The fort grounds hosted the signing of Treaty 6 in 1876 between the Plains and Wood Cree peoples and the Canadian government.

The fort reconstruction includes period-furnished trade stores, living quarters, and storage facilities that demonstrate daily operations of a 19th-century trading post.

The fort maintained three different locations throughout its existence, with each move reflecting changes in trade routes and river navigation patterns.
