        General Info
        The Sacramento History Museum recounts the narrative of Sacramento through insightful exhibitions of antiquities and accompanying anecdotes. The current offering of Gold, Greed & Speculation: The Beginnings of Sacramento City tells the tale of Sacramento’s first 50 years, delving into the birth of a city with a story much more complex than modern gold miners would have us believe. Headlining this exhibit is an interactive, computer-augmented mural, as well as more than $1 million worth of gold specimens, including a golden replica of an Olympic bronze medal that secretly contains chocolate.

        We took the underground tour below the street level in Old Sacramento. The Sacramento History Museum guide guide was informative, friendly, and entertaining. When you take this tour, be sure to wear comfortable shoes.

        Best museum in Sacramento!

        Had a great time here at the Sacramento History Museum! We panned for gold, played in the children's imagination stations, went on a great scavenger hunt, and then got to take a tour of Old Sacramento Underground. Best day our family has had in Old Sacramento in a long while!
