Minchau is a residential neighbourhood in the Mill Woods area of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It is named for August Minchau, one of the first settlers on the land. Poland-born, Minchau moved as a young person to Volhynia, Russia where he married. He and his wife Caroline emigrated to Canada in 1894, settling in what is now Millwoods and spawning a network of families of that name resident in Edmonton.^[8]

The land was once set aside for a reserve for the Papaschase band, but the reserve was controversially disbanded around 1891. The land's next landowners and farmers included Strathcona businessman H.F. Sandeman, John Donnan and August Schatz.^[8]

The community is represented by the Ridgewood Community League, established in 1982, which maintains a community hall and outdoor rink located at Mill Woods Road East and 37 Avenue.^[9]^[10]
