Historic Sites of Manitoba: Queen Elizabeth II Statue (Kennedy Street, Winnipeg)
Created by Manitoba artist Leo Mol, this statue commemorates Her Majesty The Queen’s address to the Manitoba Legislative Assembly during its provincial centennial in 1970. Originally situated in the Steinkopf Gardens at the Centennial Concert Hall, the statue was relocated to its present site on the grounds of Government House in 2010. It was unveiled by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, accompanied by His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh, at a ceremony on 3 July 2010.
