Maryhill Museum is a small museum that has a little bit of everything in Goldendale, WA The museum building was originally the mansion Sam Hill built. He had purchased 5,300 acres of land to form a farming community and named it Maryhill Land Co. after his daughter, Mary. He turned the mansion into a museum. It was dedicated in 1926 by Sam Hill’s friend Queen Marie of Romania (the granddaughter of Britain’s Queen Victoria). There are some items in the museum from her.
They have some Indian that are similar to items in Kaya’s collection.
Sam
Hill was involved in building highways in the Gorge. This summer the
fire in the Gorge in OR affected some of the old highway. The museum is
not located in this area, instead further east.
