The Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village ((ウクライナ語: Село спадщини української культури, translit. ''Selo spadshchyny ukrains’koi kul’tury'')) is an open-air museum that uses costumed historical interpreters to recreate pioneer settlements in east central Alberta, Canada. In particular it shows the lives of Ukrainian Canadian settlers from the years 1899 to 1930. Buildings from surrounding communities have been moved to the historic site and restored to various years within the first part of the twentieth century. "The Village", as it is colloquially known, has a very strong commitment to historical authenticity and the concept of living history. The Village uses a technique known as first-person interpretation which requires that the costumed performers remain ''in character'' at all times (or as much as is feasibly possible). Actors answer all questions as if it is the year their building portrays. Although this technique is off-putting for some visitors at first, it allows for a much stronger experience of immersion in history than traditional third-person interpretation where the actor acknowledges that he is, in fact, in a museum. The Village is located east of Edmonton on the Yellowhead highway on the eastern edge of Elk Island National Park. ==Monuments== * Alberta Centenary Pioneer Monument and Centennial Orchard〔Erected by the (Ukrainian Self-Reliance League ).〕 * Cenotaph to the Ukrainian Canadian Soldier〔Erected by the Edmonton Norwood Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion.
