Sketch of Fort Livingstone circa 1877
Fort Livingstone was founded as an outpost in Northwest Territories, Canada.
The outpost briefly served as the capital city for North-West Territories government for the years of 1874 to 1876, and headquarters for the North-West Mounted Police for the same period, until they moved headquarters to Fort Macleod, Alberta.
The Fort Pelly-Livingstone Museum (c. 1912-1923) is a Municipal Heritage Property on the Canadian Register of Historic Places. [1] The site was designated a historical site by the Saskatchewan provincial government.
The nearest inhabited site is Pelly, Saskatchewan.
