List of National Historic Sites of Canada in British Columbia


This is a list of National Historic Sites (French: Lieux historiques nationaux) in the province of British Columbia. There are 95 National Historic Sites designated in British Columbia, 13 of which are administered by Parks Canada (identified below by the beaver icon Beaver 1 (PSF)(retouched)(transparent).png). The first National Historic Sites to be designated in British Columbia were Fort Langley and Yuquot in 1923.

There are related federal designations for National Historic Events and National Historic Persons. Events, Sites, and Persons are each typically marked by a federal plaque, but the markers do not indicate which designation a subject has been given. The Rideau Canal is a Site, while the Welland Canal is an Event. The cairn and plaque to John Macdonell does not refer to a National Historic Person, but is erected because his home, Glengarry House, is a National Historic Site. Similarly, the plaque to John Guy officially marks not a Person, but an Event—the Landing of John Guy.
