Founding

In 1988, the City’s 75th Anniversary Committee decided to donate $500 to start the City of North Battleford Historic Archives with the goal of maintaining and preserving the rich cultural heritage of North Battleford. Today, a volunteer organization works in partnership with the City of North Battleford towards that goal. The City Archives is a donation-based repository and is made possible due to the generosity of the citizens of North Battleford, who wish to see the history of our great City preserved.

The City Collection has over 7000 photographs, 5000 negatives and over 200 metres of textual records. The subjects covered within this material are very extensive and range in date from the early 1800s to the present. All items donated to the Archives are kept in a climate-controlled, acid-free environment that is up to the standards set out by the Saskatchewan Council of Archives and Archivists (SCAA).
