Fodor's Review:

City butcher Oscar Anderson built Anchorage's first permanent frame house in 1915 at a time when most of Anchorage consisted of tents. Swedish Christmas tours are held the first two weekends of December. Guided 45-minute tours are available whenever the museum is open.

  • Cost: $3
  • Open: June-mid-Sept., Mon.-Fri. noon-5; group tours (maximum 10 participants per group) must be arranged in advance.
