Oscar Anderson House Museum
Oscar Anderson House Museum, Historic house museum in downtown Anchorage, United States.
The Oscar Anderson House Museum contains original furnishings and personal items that represent daily life in early twentieth-century Alaska during its territorial period.
Built in 1915 by Swedish immigrant Oscar Anderson, this wooden residence represents one of the first permanent structures constructed in the developing city of Anchorage.
The rooms display traditional household items, photographs, and furniture arrangements that reflect the domestic practices of Alaska's early European settlers.
The museum opens from Memorial Day through Labor Day, with guided tours available Wednesday through Sunday between 12:00 PM and 4:00 PM.
The house maintains its original location at 420 M Street, featuring period-accurate interior design elements from 1915 to 1925.
