Fort Nisqually Living History Museum - 1 hour

Fort Nisqually Living History Museum is located on the site of a former Hudson's Bay Company trading post, the first non-Native settlement on Puget Sound. As a living history museum, Fort Nisqually offers guests the chance to discover what life was like in the 1850s.

Volunteers and staff dressed in period clothing put on interactive shows demonstrating the crafts of the 19th century and engaging visitors in historic dialogue. A number of events are held at the fort throughout the year, including an annual Candlelight Tour and weekly visits by local artists during the summer months.
