The Corrington?s Museum of Alaskan History is a well known tourist destination in Skagway, Alaska. It was founded by Dennis Corrington and features several walrus tusks.

The Corrington?s Museum of Alaskan History sticks to its name and delivers its promise. It does tell of the state?s local history, in quite an unusual manner, however. Because unlike other museums, this one tells the tale through the walrus scrimshaw tusks, which, as of the last count amounts up to more than 40.

If this is not impressive enough, the access to the Corrington?s Museum of Alaskan History is also for free. There are also other exhibits, a gift show with tons of beautiful items, and a bright flower garden outside. It is closed during the winter season and its hours depend on the cruise ships that dock in the area.
