Rosetown (provincial electoral district)

Rosetown was a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of the province of Saskatchewan, Canada, centered on the community of Rosetown.

Created before the 3rd Saskatchewan general election in 1912, this district was dissolved and combined with the Elrose constituency (as Rosetown-Elrose) before the 18th Saskatchewan general election in 1975. It is now part of a revived Rosetown-Elrose constituency.
