If you are interested in local history this is the place to go. Small entry fee. Exhibits are great. Very interesting. You learn a lot about Haines and its people past and present.

The information about the local culture and history was excellent. Many displays of baskets, hand-made boxes, clothing, etc. The staff was quite nice. There was even a nicely done gift shop.

This is a great little museum, filled with native and local history. The gentleman at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. There is so much stuff in such a small space but it was very well laid out.

Good little museum with assorted displays on gold mining, native culture, and local history. Sadly, we arrived 10 minutes before they were to close. They were kind enough not to charge us admission. We quickly walked through the exhibits, wishing we had allotted more time for a longer visit.

We came across this museum while watching the State Fair Parade. We liked watching the totem pole carving. Our children were even allowed to help carve. The content inside was more for adults with history interests.

Aside from the stuffed animals and assorted native American costumes, the museum provides a window into the local culture of this area, its history, the first native Americans who settled here and built totem sculptures and traded actively up and down the shore. It is well worth your time and plan on an hour or more to do it.

This museum is one that won't take you more than an hour to read all the signs and information, but IS one that you will be able to enjoy because your kids will be occupied in the kids Discovery Corner. Not just any kids area, this one, made by preschool teachers is chock full of educational and hand-made toys that help to explain salmon biology, berry picking and gathering customs of the local people, and the rich history of the area---all while seeming fun!It is honestly the highlight of the museum. I've never been so impressed by a kids corner, especially in a small museum, in a small town!

Museum combines local historical and archeological information with current artist showcase gallery.

Small museum with local and native art collections. Rotating exhibits and things for the kids to do on the lower floor.

I live in Haines and always take my visitors to the museum. It is extensive and interesting, presenting a complete history of the area and native culture. Lots of wonderful artifacts. Always something new!

I love the history of Alaska and its peoples. This museum does a wonderful job of presenting information about the peoples of Alaska with pictures, written narrative and exhibits. Downstairs is a fascinating room filled with the founders personal collection.It is educational and interesting. Knowledge not flash.

This is a smallish, 2-room museum. One floor is devoted to the height of fishing/canneries and gold rush days. Another floor is devoted Tlingit (Native) culture. Plenty of authentic artifacts in both rooms, though slightly disorganized. Still very much worthwhile. We spent 1 3/4 hours and saw/read most everything.

Pleased to find that Haines honors the Tlingit history of the area, after being in Skagway which seemed to present history as dating to the first European. Highlight was watching the totem pole carvers at work.

This museum is easy to reach via the trolley that picked us up at the pier. We were on the Statendam. It is worth the time, filled with the history of the area. Across the street is the Hammer Museum, another worthwhile stop.

Although it was winter and there were very few visitors, the museum was disappointing - we saw a far better museum in Sitka. Too much stuff by local school kids on topics not related to Haines. A waste of time really
