Lloydminster at a Glance
Lloydminster has a unique geographical location where it straddles the provincial
border of both Alberta and Saskatchewan.
Meridian Avenue (50 Avenue) marks the centre of Lloydminster. All addresses
east of Meridian Avenue are considered to be a part of Saskatchewan while all
addresses west of Meridian Avenue belong to Alberta. As the only border city
in all of Canada, Lloydminster is home to the world's largest border
markers. Visitors may find the four, 30-m (100-ft) high giant survey markers
in Lloydminster's City Hall. This town, named after the Anglican Bishop George
Exton Lloyd, was once a Barr Colony and takes pride in its pioneering heritage
as visitors will discover when at the Barr
Colony Heritage Cultural Centre, which houses a collection of over 250 pieces
of religious and historical artwork. Whether visitors decide to visit Lloydminster,
Alberta or Lloydminster, Saskatchewan, there are plenty of exciting and entertaining
activities for the entire family to take part in.
