Coos History Museum

"A really good museum with interesting artifacts and area history. Friendly staff and reasonable entry fee. Nice lil gift shop too."

"The museum had several exhibits with many historical items on display and a room with information and examples of myrtlewood carvings. However, the most interesting part of the museum was the sign out front which told of the story of the lynching of Alonzo Tucker who was killed by a white mob in 1902. The museum also goes further into explaining Oregon’s complicated history with race as the only state accepted into the union with racial exclusion laws in their constitution. I briefly lived in Oregon, but I had never heard of many of the things I read about in the museum. I recommend going for the history lesson."

"It looked like a cool museum. To get in was 22.00 for a family to get in. Maybe next time we will pay to get in. Has a cute little gift shop. The staff was friendly and welcoming"

"Opened in 2016. Well curated history museum. Easy entry off the 101 and economical prices for admission. If you are interested in local history, early mining, gold prospecting and fishing make sure to stop in. Kid friendly."

"Drove by this place so many times. Finally decided to go in, for only $7 entry fee and one of the best places to visit in Coos Bay! Clean, very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Tons of relics and history. Very enlightening and enjoyable!"
