| A rare example of a Russian-American colony structure. One of the few structures extant that bears witness to Russian colonial ventures in present-day U.S. territory. A finely crafted, vernacular log building covered with siding remaining from Sitka's first years as a seat of government in the period following the purchase of Alaska by the U.S. in 1867. | |||||||||
