Mundare: Sausage, a Basilian Museum and Plenty of Listings
Mundare sits in Lamont County around 70 km from the city, a few minutes north of the Yellowhead at the Highway 15 and 855 crossroads. Most visitors know it for a 12.8 m sausage sculpture, a tribute to the Stawnichy family's garlic sausage business, running since 1959.

History worth a visit
A railway station agent, William Mundare, lent the town his name. Incorporation as a village came in 1907, town status in 1951, and a centennial party in 2007. The Basilian Fathers Museum, run by the order that served the Ukrainian settlers, displays church books printed in Ukraine in the 1500s and 1600s.
School and care
The town school (Elk Island Public Schools) takes children to Grade 8; teenagers travel for high school. Long-term care is available locally at Mary Immaculate, while emergency rooms are in Lamont (daytime hours) and Vegreville (24 hours).
Commute
The Yellowhead runs west to Sherwood Park and the Henday, so a southwest commute is long but straightforward. Most buyers here work east of the city or from home.
Using the supply
- Compare several homes before offering; the choice is there.
- Ask for repairs or credits after inspection.
- Negotiate possession to match your southwest sale.
