Espanola, Administrative town in Sudbury District, Canada.

The town sits along the Spanish River, surrounded by forests and natural landscapes, serving as a regional service center for neighboring communities.

The Spanish River Pulp and Paper Company established Espanola in the late 19th century, building a hydropower dam at Webbwood Falls for industrial operations.

Espanola maintains strong connections to its industrial heritage through community events and celebrations that honor the paper mill workers who shaped the town.

The town provides essential services including a public library, sports facilities, and regular transportation connections to major urban centers in Northern Ontario.

Espanola gained recognition as the birthplace of ringette in 1963, when local recreation director Red McCarthy created this ice sport at the community arena.
