The Carstairs Heritage Centre offers visitors a chance to learn more about the area as they explore the rich stories of Carstairs, Southern Alberta, and the Canadian West. With its expansive collection of over 4,000 artifacts, the museum interprets the region’s vibrant heritage.

The Carstairs and District Historical Society was formed in 1986 to turn the newly deconsecrated Knox Presbyterian Church into a community museum. Since then, the Church and attached buildings have transformed into permanent galleries.

Villa Maria Ristorante Italiano

Villa Maria Ristorante Italiano is a beautiful and authentic restaurant serving pasta, appetizers, entrees, pizza, soup, salads, and kid’s items. 

Owners Danny and Maria have excellent experience with Italian cuisine already. The menu is classic Italian, and the daily specials are highly recommended as one can’t go wrong with whatever Maria cooks up for the day. The dishes are lovely, with homemade sauces, complex undertones, and excellent service. Pricing is fair, and items do not break the bank. 

For an authentic Italian experience, come to Villa Maria Ristorante Italiano restaurant.
