Fort Macleod is a historic town located in southern Alberta, Canada. Founded in 1874 as a North-West Mounted Police (NWMP) fort, it holds the distinction of being the first permanent police post in western Canada. The town is named after Colonel James Macleod, who led the NWMP in establishing law and order in the Canadian West.

Fort Macleod's rich heritage is reflected in its well-preserved historic downtown district, featuring sandstone buildings from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The town's cultural significance is deeply connected to both its role in Canadian law enforcement history and its location in traditional Blackfoot territory. The area continues to serve as an important cultural bridge between Indigenous and settler histories, offering visitors insights into the complex relationships that shaped western Canada.
