Melville combines the intimacy of a small Saskatchewan city with the working legacy of a railway centre in a way that reflects its position on the open plains of the Canadian Prairies. The surrounding region is grain country, shaped by long horizons and transport routes connecting rural communities across southeastern Saskatchewan. The community took shape in 1907 and was named for railway executive Charles Melville Hays, while rail transport remains central to its identity. A compact downtown and local services underline Melville’s role for the surrounding farming area. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Saskatchewan.
