About this place

A museum dedicated to Sacramento's past, located in the city center. Visitors explore exhibits about the Gold Rush era, including a recreated 1850s newspaper office with working printing presses that operate during 30-minute sessions included with admission. The museum also features historical baseball uniforms and equipment, a quilt with over 500 names made for the nation's centennial, and tours of underground Sacramento that explain how the city rebuilt itself after 19th-century floods. Additional offerings include ghost tours of historic buildings and evening tours covering the seedier aspects of Gold Rush history.
