Clatsop County Historical Society Heritage Museum Review

In a 100-year-old Colonial Revival building originally used as the city hall, this museum has two floors of exhibits detailing the history of the early pioneers, Native Americans, and logging and marine industries of Clatsop County, the oldest American settlement west of the Mississippi. Artifacts include finely crafted 19th-century Chinook and Clatsop baskets, otter pelts, and historic logging and fishing tools. The research library, where you may research local family and building history, also is open to the public.
