DAWSON HISTORIC COMPLEX

The historic buildings, classified as national historic sites, have been preserved and transformed into stores, hotels or restaurants. Among them, the Palace Grand Theatre, built in 1899 and a major entertainment venue at the time, the old post office, the wealthy commissioner's residence, occupied by the Yukon federal government representative from 1900 to 1916, or the Harrington Store, a general store now transformed into a gallery of old photos of the city.
