Welcome to the Cranbrook History Centre, a unique venue perfect for that special day when your
“Happily-ever-after” begins.
While the main building is fairly new, it houses an exquisite gem from the Edwardian era. The
Royal Alexandra Hall was once the Grand Café from the Royal Alexandra Hotel, built by the
Canadian Pacific Railway in Winnipeg in 1906. Although the hotel was demolished in 1971, the
room and fireplace were saved. The hall is a sophisticated and lavish space filled with ornate
designs in the “baronial” style. The neutral interior is a perfect compliment to any colour scheme
with minimal decorating needed.
As it is a historic venue, renters are asked to use stand-alone decorations. Please refrain from
attaching any decorations to walls or light fixtures. Lit candles and open flames are not permitted
in the room, while LED candles are.

The Catering Kitchen is not equipped for food preparation, so the caterer

museum.
