Best Historical place in Canada

D	Deb Pryslak on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Run by Parks Canada what an amazing place. Guided tours, very knowledgeable staff about the history of the Great West Rebellion. Original Church and rectory and is still standing and also used for weddings and one service a year. The information center and museum is a beautiful building and set up. Great walking trails with interpreted sign posts. We had lunch at the vistor center good traditional Metis cuisine. Tourtiere was fabulous. This is a must see.
W	Walter Andreeff on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ As a Métis man whose ancestors were present here in 1885, I had an instant feeling of deja-vu when I drove into the area and something in my soul was stirred. Days later as we did the walk/march from the camp with the people, I was instantly moved by excitement and sadness when the bells rang in the church as our flag-carrying group approached the cemetery where the Métis Patriots were laid to rest. I'm a descendant of the Goulet family who lived in this area and although this was my first visit to Batoche: I know this place. My great grandfather fought for his family here in 1885 and was placed in jail after the surrender.
G	Grammy Bear on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I've visited the site several times over the years. I took my mother and grandchildren. This year I will take my foster children and see all the displays. It's a peaceful, history laden place. Lately I've stopped by for great food & the gift shop. Everytime it's like coming home again.
K	Kelsie Petersen on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 5* for the actual site. 3* for the website and on-site communication. I missed over half of what I came to see because of the scheduling and then the shuttle tour route didn't cover what the map seemed to indicate it did. If you want to see the theater presentation, do the shuttle tour and still have time to see the East Village or do any exploring on foot, give yourself a good 4-5 hours. There is a little Cafe on site with outdoor seating. The Bannock and Tourtiere were very good, and the Bison soup smelled delicious!
S	Sheri Lucas on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Such a great place to visit - a huge property with so much history. We visited in September and the weather was perfect snd so few visitors. Our don watched a beaver fall a tree and we watched it walk away with the branch. Highly recommend!
c	chiratidzo kuda mung on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a very beautiful location just an hour outside of Saskatoon.The museum has important information about the Metis history in this region and in Canada.The tour of the church and house were also quite informative,and the guide interpreting to us was very knowledgeable. The walking trails around this site are gorgeous! We will definitely return.
J	Jessica DeWitt on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Gorgeous historic site with excellent interpretation. I’m glad I finally visited. I spent my first visit focusing on the historical interpretation, but I’d love to go back and just hike for a day. Their site historical film was pretty terrible though. Parks Canada, y’all should fund a new one.
