Discover the mining, railroad, aviation, and mountaineering heritage of Talkeetna, Alaska

The Talkeetna Historical Society was founded in 1972 by residents concerned with protecting Talkeetna's historical sites. We are a non-profit organization who safeguards the uniqueness of our rural Alaskan community, Talkeetna, in the preservation of our historical past in its Museum, and its many other historical buildings and trails.

Moose Dropping Festival Fundraising events, along with museum admissions, enable the Society to continue work on important projects, such as the stabilization of Belle's Barn and an interpretive trail. In addition to a variety of exhibits, the Little Red School House Museum has a unique gift store, offering a large selection of books about the area and its historical past. Please join us in helping to protect and preserve Talkeetna's history by becoming a member, and by making a contribution to the Talkeetna Historical Society.
