Drumheller Little Church

This church was first erected by local contractor Trygve Seland, in co-operation with the Ministerial Association in 1958 and was reconstructed by inmates of the Drumheller Institution in 1991. It was designed as a place of worship and mediation and not just a tourist attraction. The Little Church has six one-person pews and a pulpit. At one time, it had stained glass windows and a brass bell in its steeple. A fun saying we use is “ the Little Church holds 10,000 people, but only six at a time.”

Bleriot Ferry

The Bleriot Ferry links the two sections of the North Dinosaur Trail (Alberta Highway 838) as it crosses the Red Deer River from Kneehill County on the west, to Starland County on the east. It was built by Andre Bleriot, commissioned in 1913 and, in addition to providing an essential transport service, acted as a major social hub in the Drumheller Valley. The Bleriot Ferry only runs seasonally and is closed during the winter hours. It is a perfect detour that connects the roads that access the Horsethief Canyon and Orkney View point.
