LAGGAN Station
The pristine wilderness of the Canadian Rockies attracted many tourists, and the Canadian Pacific Railway built this station in about 1890 on its main line at Laggan, now Lake Louise. This station and the one at Banff, which was also built to accommodate the tourist trade, were designed to have both an air of coziness and a proximity to nature, complementing their mountain settings.
Bruderheim Windmill - Heritage Park
Wilhelm Mallon, a carpenter and blacksmith arrived in Canada in 1910. He discovered that the sandy soil of his farm near Bruderheim, Alberta, grew a good crop of spring rye. The next step was building a mill to make the sort of rye bread. From 1920 to 1924, Mallon completed this mill. Mallon used hand tools to shape the gears, wheels and shafts from scrub birch, and shaped his millstones from granite found in the North Saskatchewan River.

Miners Cabin & Standard Gauge Railway Track
On Right: Standard gauge track (four feet, 8½ inches wide) at Heritage Park.
On Left: Miners Cabin - Built behind Banff's 'Wilson & Fear General Store' around 1885, this cabin originally served as a taxidermy shop frequented by Banff tourists hunting game animals. While not part of the many gold rushes that took place in Alberta and British Columbia between 1858 and 1912, this cabin does illustrate the sort of rustic lodgings used by miners at the time.
