Small center/museum for old Monterey history; short tours begin here.

Update- It is now open again to the public. Worth a quick stop for Spanish, Mexican and US transitions through history. It is next to the pier and the exit faces a small park. Takes a few to ten minutes or so, depending on how many questions you have. Docent was very helpful.

Highly recommend paying ($10) for the curated tour (10am & 2pm daily) by one of the knowledgeable State Parks & Rec staff. It’s a 45-60 min fascinating short walk of:* Custom House Museum* First Brick House* Old Whaling Station* California’s First Theater* Joseph Boston Store* Memory Garden* Pacific House Museum
