Juneau Douglas City Museum is a wonderful place to visit to get a overview of the city of Juneau and Douglas. The museum explores the cultural and economic history of our area. You will find the museum located at 155 South Seward St.
You will find a plethora of photos, videos, artifacts and artwork to learn more about the native people and early settlers of the area
The fee is $6 for adults. Then again, if you are lucky like me and arrive within 1/2 hour of closing you get half off. Ages 12 years and younger are free. See the website here: http://www.juneau.org/library/museum/index.php
