Review:

The Tongass Historical Museum is a wonderful space for visitors to learn about Ketchikan’s past and the role the city played as a Native Alaskan fish camp, fishing port, gold and copper mining center, timber town, transportation hub, and much more. You’ll be able to see rare artifacts and historical photographs, which come together to tell the story of how the area has transformed over the years; the museum also has a growing collection of modern Native Alaskan art. There are many permanent and temporary exhibitions pertaining to the history, art, and culture of Ketchikan for you to enjoy as well as several related programs, workshops, and special events.
