Special Places - Wawanesa, Manitoba

About the project...

The project has documented over 100 sites in Melita that possess heritage characteristics.

For each site we have taken photos and attempted to determine the origins and significance of the site, as well as noting, for the record, architectural, material and design details.

Each site has been placed on a map and any old photos or other documentation unearthed is included in the file. In some cases other resources have been identified.

We have attempted to relate these site to the history of the region throught a series of short articles on:

1. Historic Claims of the area,
2. Analysis Critera - Where sites fit in terms of the Community Heritage 
3. Community Layout
4. Noteable People.

The project is intended as a "Beginning" rather tha a Finished Product. Local groups and individuals are invited to amend and add to it. New information is always welcome and we will make every effort to add anthing that is sent to us.

In doing heritage research one often encounters mysteries and unanswered questions.

One goal is to keep collecting information about Wawanesa's older buildings. We would appreciate corrections, additions, comments and questions as we complete the project.
