About

"Preserving the past for future generations"

Description

We are a local Museum that houses artifacts from Three Rivers as well as surrounding areas. We have a gift shop that includes park memorabilia, books by local authors (some that are autographed) as well as photographs by a local photographer (also known as our Board President Tom Marshall). Please stop in and see the history that we have and learn more about Three Rivers and the local National Parks that sit right in our backyard.

As always there is no admission fee but donations are welcome and gratefully accepted.

We stopped here attracted by the old trucks parked. When you pull in a hugs statue of Paul Bunyan. The outside of the building is decorated with artifacts. As you move right there are a few historic buildings. They happened to be closed the day we were visiting. I am going to ad some pics if the inside is as wonderful as the outside it's definitely worth going. I added some of my black and white versions of these pics. I hope you enjoy them.
On the way to sequoia national park and noticed this museum. There’s also a public restroom and Sequoia shuttle stop here. There are so many historical equipments and vehicles to see. Too bad it was too hot to hangout outside. I only quickly took these photos and ran back to our car.Price for adult entryFree
Very nice historical visitor center ! Everything was so interesting and amazing to look at. And Tom was a great guide ! He was very nice and gave us a lot of interesting facts. I definitely recommend everyone stopping by :D
Unfortunately the museum was closed when I stopped, but there is a small exhibit about a mining company with a smelter that can be seen on the outside of the building along with a cross section of a sequoia. There is also some local art visible outside the museum. I would have loved to have asked someone why that 1511 date is there and what it is supposed to be.
Love the Museum. Also, Tony's Taverna on Wheels is located on the grounds. Amazing, authentic Greek food. Picnic area & very friendly staff & locals. Highly recommend!!!
