Fort Edmonton (also named Edmonton House) was the name of a series of trading posts of the Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) from 1795 to 1914, all of which were located on the north banks of the North Saskatchewan River in what is now central Alberta, Canada. It was one of the last points on the Carlton Trail, the main overland route for Metis freighters between the Red River Colony and the points west and was an important stop on the York Factory Express route between London, via Hudson Bay, and Fort Vancouver in the Columbia District. It also was a connection to the Great Northland, as it was situated relatively close to the Athabasca River whose waters flow into the Mackenzie River and the Arctic Ocean. Located on the farthest north of the major rivers flowing to the Hudson Bay and the HBC's

  • Fort Edmonton (früher auch Edmonton House) ist heute ein Museum in Edmonton, Kanada. Von 1795 bis 1891 war es ein Handelsposten der Hudson’s Bay Company (HBC). 1795 erbaut die HBC das Fort am North Saskatchewan River in Konkurrenz zum nahegelegenen der North West Company (NWC). Das Gebiet gehörte zum Fellhandelsmonopol für Ruperts Land der HBC, diente aber auch der Verbindung zu den damaligen Nordwest-Territorien, dem Monopolgebiet der NWC. Der Handelskrieg eskalierte zwischen 1815 und 1819 im Pemmikan-Krieg, nach dessen Beilegung beide wirtschaftlich am Ende waren und schließlich 1821 vom britischen Kolonialministerium, dem Monopolgeber beider Unternehmen, zur Fusion gezwungen wurden. Nach der Vereinigung (immer noch unter dem Namen der HBC) avancierte Fort Edmonton zur Drehscheibe des F (de)
