Coronation is a town in east-central Alberta, Canada, within the County of Paintearth No. 18. It is located at the intersection of Highway 12 and Highway 872, approximately {{convert|100|km|mi}} west of the Saskatchewan border.

History

{{unreferenced section|date=June 2012}}

Coronation was incorporated as a town on September 27, 1911. After moving south from the Haneyville, some distance north of its present location to be congruent with rail lines, Coronation was expected to be a hub town.{{clarify|date=October 2010}} However, larger towns such as Calgary and Red Deer began to evolve into cities and Coronation was forgotten in that regard.

Relying on its farming population, Coronation eventually erected three grain elevators which remained landmarks until their destruction in the summer of 2002. Other landmarks include the water tower that was remodeled in the late 1990s, the caboose that is painted a regal red, and the lighted crown at the town's entrance that was built by a team of Hutterites in the early 2000s.
