Humboldt County Historical Society

Fantastic records, there is a ton of info here. No idea how it stacks up compared to other cities but there is a lot to browse and the volunteers are really helpful and friendly. Just ask for help and if it's there they can find it or give you leads to other places that may have more info

Cute old home that is more for genealogy research but had some old photos on the wall. Got a chuckle about sign for electric lights

Wonderful organization but went there before Christmas to purchase a specific local book but the book store employee "left early" and they couldnt sell me the book. Offered to pay through a donation on the website but they couldn't accommodate. Left without the opportunity to purchase.

We went and visited the museum and found it to be quite a gem - displays very well laid out, a video of some giant water creature on with seats so one can watch the video, then walk around the museum and there are more displays outside, in the grounds - cars and machinery - there is a small gift shop with interesting crystals and various artifacts for sale. There is no entrance fees and visitors are asked for donations only - there is little sign - to be quite honest if a visitor does not want to donate, it is ok too - it’s a good place to spend an hour or so - it’s not far from the main town area and well worth a visit. The explanations along with the displays are not only interesting but easy to understand. The museum is not overly big - there are tables and bench seats by the car park that is shaded and visitors can sit and rest a little there. An interesting, peaceful and quiet place - I will definitely return for another visit.

Wasn't inside but was outside working and met one of the staff members she was extremely knowledgeable and volunteered to help a friend trace some family history stuff down

Nice but needs more relaxant and present history of Eureka and all the changes happening now Downtown eureka is in very bad shape

Very friendly and actually have quite a varied collection. Death records, wills and the map room helps us the most

I didn't grow up here so it's very interesting and I got me a couple books.
