Distance: ~3.589 km from The Fairmont Hotel Macdonald
Description: Originally built to house Alberta's lieutenant governors, this lovely sandstone building made its premiere in 1913. By 1938, economic situations forced its closing, and the structure was leased to an airline. In succeeding years, the home became a veterans' hospital and then a veterans' home. In the mid-1970s, the Government House was refurbished and re-opened as a government conference center. Today, it retains its former architecture and beauty. The building's three stories currently house reception rooms and conference areas, six of which are named for the six lieutenant governors who actually resided in the Government House.
