Brandon House was a Hudson's Bay Company post or posts from 1793 to 1824. It was located at several places on the Assiniboine River between Brandon, Manitoba and the mouth of the Souris River about 21 miles southeast of Brandon.

It was moved four times and there were related forts nearby, so its history is necessarily complex. For background see Assiniboine River fur trade.
