Cumberland House Provincial Park
Cumberland House Provincial Park, Historic provincial park in Cumberland House, Saskatchewan, Canada.
The 5.2-hectare park contains a stone powder magazine building from 1886 and remnants of the Hudson's Bay Company trading post.
Samuel Hearne established Cumberland House in 1774 as the first inland Hudson's Bay Company trading post, marking the beginning of Saskatchewan's oldest settlement.
The park preserves artifacts and exhibits that document the interactions between European traders, First Nations, and Métis communities during the fur trade period.
Visitors can explore interpretive displays, hiking trails, and picnic areas while learning about the site's connection to river transportation and trade networks.
The powder magazine features copper nails, lead cladding, and elevated floors specifically designed to safely store explosives away from other structures.
