Alberta's Provincial Historic Sites, Interpretive Centres and Museums

The Government of Alberta operates a network of historic sites, interpretive centres and museums throughout the Province.

One of these great resources is located right here in Wood Buffalo!! The Oil Sands Discovery Centre tells the exciting story of the Athabasca Oil Sands, the world’s biggest single oil deposit. Discover how oil was formed millions of years ago, perform experiments used by oil sands pioneers, and see how bitumen is extracted and changed into synthetic crude oil.
