Humboldt's Historic Sites

A city reveals its unique past through its historic buildings. Each building embodies a story that we invite you to discover.

Through our research, we have pieced together a brief history of these pre 1920 buildings based on its occupancy and use, rather than architectural revisions. It is not the complete story. History reveals itself each day through the memories of people who used these buildings. If you have any stories about these buildings, we would love to hear from you. If we have missed something, please let us know.
