Fodor's Review:

Native artifacts and pioneer relics revisit the mining and fishing eras at this somewhat ho-hum museum in the same building as the library. Exhibits include a big, brilliantly polished lens from Tree Point Lighthouse and a well-presented collection of native tools and artwork. Other exhibits rotate but always include Tlingit items.

  • Cost: $2
  • Open: May-Sept., daily 8-5; Oct.-Apr., Wed.-Fri. 1-5, Sat. 10-4, Sun. 1-4
