celebrating tlingit legacy in the upper lynn canal
The cultural legacy of the Haines community traces back to its earliest inhabitants, the Tlingit people, who have resided in the valley since time immemorial. Their enduring presence is reflected in the intricate totems and artwork adorning buildings throughout the area. Additionally, Haines is home to two native tribes, the Chilkat
and Chilkoot. For a comprehensive exploration of Tlingit customs, stories, and artifacts, we encourage you to visit the Jilkaat Kwan Heritage Center in Klukwan, a Tlingit village along the Haines Highway.
