A must-see is the Jefferson County Historical Society Museum, dedicated back in 1892, which occupies the original Police Department, Court Room, City Jail, and Fire Hall. The Court Room with its original woodwork, the dramatic City Jail, and the high-ceilinged Fire Hall all contribute to a marvelous feeling of history. The museum honors the people of Jefferson County through a wonderful collection of artifacts, archives, family history, and photographs. Exhibits include The First People: the Hoh, S’Klallam & Chimacum Tribes, The Explorers and Mariners, The Settlers and Builders, and The Victorians. (540 Water Street; call for hours, which vary seasonally; 360-385-1003.)
