The Historic Alsea Bay Bridge Visitor Center & Museum is rich in history, showcasing all the bridges along the Oregon Coast from Astoria to Brookings. The Museum features photos, accounts, displays and artifacts depicting Waldport’s early years, including a special area dedicated to the native Alsi Indians. There is also a life-size bronze sculpture of Oregon Black Pioneer Louis Southworth, an enlsaved person who settled here and donated land for Waldport’s first school house. Southworth will be memorialized when the new Louis Southworth Park opens in late 2024. Admission is free and the Center is ADA accessible.
