Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park

Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park Review

A redbrick building with wooden floors and soaring ceilings contains a small museum illustrating Seattle's role in the 1897-98 Gold Rush in the Klondike region. Antique equipment is on display, and the walls are lined with photos of gold miners, explorers, and the hopeful families who followed them. Film presentations, gold-panning demonstrations (daily in summer, at 10 and 3), and rotating exhibits are scheduled throughout the year. Other sectors of this park are in southeast Alaska.
