Natural Color Scenes of the West
SUTTER'S FORT, Sacramento, California, was founded in 1839
by Captain John A. Sutter as a protection against the Indians. It became
the western terminus of overland wagon trains and one of the richest
and largest trading posts in the West. After discovery of gold it be-
came the seething center of the great gold rush-more than 42,000
miners passing through its gates in 1850. The reconstructed Fort
with 22 rooms of exhibits is open to the public 10 to 4 daily.
