The Valdez Museum includes displays on the history of Valdez and the Prince William Sound Region. A miner's cabin gives a glimpse into what a typical prospector's cabin might have looked like. Another highlight of the museum is a fully-restored 1907 steam fire engine. There are also exhibits on the 1964 earthquake, the EXXON VALDEZ Oil Spill, and more.
