Warner Elevator Row

The Warner elevator row in Warner, Alberta, features four historic wood-cribbed grain elevators, a rare sight in Western Canada where many similar structures have been demolished. Built between 1911 and 1960, these elevators reflect the evolution of the grain industry and showcase architectural designs from their respective eras. Notably, the row includes an early example from the Alberta Farmers' Co-operative Elevator Company and a significant 1939 elevator from the Ellison Milling and Elevator Company. Despite their historical importance, the elevators lack protection, leading to the demolition of several over the years. The site offers a glimpse into Alberta's agricultural heritage and the development of grain storage facilities, making it an intriguing stop for tourists and researchers alike.
