Maryhill Museum

I grew up in this area and I am a frequint re-visitor* My aunt worked at this museum for a while and she helped a lot with the traveling peices that they get she gave me a history lesson. Sam hill was a major person in the development on the Washington side of the gorge. He put money into the roads such as the Maryhill curves that have car races in the summer. Sam Hills ashs are located below the Stonehedge in a marble vault. There is a dress located in the main enterence given to sam hills museum from a queen dated back to the early 1900’s or late 1800s its gorgious and worth seing. Including a throne of chairs and mic. items. Not only is it closed in the winter but you can drive down and walk around in the yard. They have peacocks and lawn art from local and distant artists its gorgious! The museum is pricy for some people but its worth it! There is also a peice of art located across the River in Oregon a replica of the Museum and how it was made. The replica is made of string and metal! it is going to be taken down soon but its neat! very hard to get to! You need to cros at Biggs and travel the road passed Mc’ds and the gas stations. To the left there will be a road that goes up to a recyceling place. Its located within those gates to the recyceling area. GOOD LUCK!

This has a replica of Stonehenge as A War Memorial and as I’ve never been to the UK this would be much easier & closer to visit!

Just across the bridge from 1-84 and Biggs is the Maryhill Museum. It has an amazing collection of art! They actually have a rather large collection of works by Rodin. There are even pieces that few people have seen…there was a write-up in the newspaper about an art historian who stopped here on his way to seattle and saw pieces that he hadn’t even seen when he was studying Rodin in France. You will be amazed and it is SOOOO worth stopping! It’s closed in the winter from like Nov-March but if you’re driving by in the Summer you MUST STOP!
