Klondike Gold Rush - National Historical Park Northwest History

319 Second Avenue South Seattle, WA 98104 +1 206 553 7220 http://www.nps.gov/klse

When gold was discovered in the Alaskan Klondike, thousands of miners tramped through Seattle on their way to seek their fortunes. Some stayed and made fortunes in other ways including John W. Nordstrom, the founder of Nordstrom department stores. Seattle played a big role in the Gold Rush of 1898, and this little museum tells the story. Located in historic Pioneer Square, the museum depicts the Gold Rush and the impact it had on the fledgling city. Admission is free, but donations are welcome. Review © 2009, Wcities
