This area is home to some of the oldest structures in the state and has the most resources of any such district. The historic districts of Butte and Anconda are home to numerous historic buildings. Many of the structures are in excellent condition and are open to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the cities have embraced their industrial history, and celebrate Smeltermens&#8217; Week and other events. You can buy copper-plated Moscow mule mugs at the Berkeley Pit gift shop or crack your own geodes for $5 at a nearby visitor center. A visit to the Berkeley Pit, a historic smelter, can also be part of the trip. It&#8217;s a fascinating place to spend the day and you can learn a lot about this area&#8217;s history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A visit to the Butte and Anaconda Superfund site is a unique experience. The railroad was built on the hard work, innovation, and community of its founder, Marcus Daly. The city&#8217;s industrial heritage has been fully embraced through the town&#8217;s annual Smeltermens&#8217; Week celebration. In addition to the geology museum, there is a copper-plated Moscow mule mug for $5 and a crack-your-own geode kit for $3. The 1,500-foot-wide pit is open to the public for viewing, and there is a view of a nearby mountain range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from the Butte and Anaconda, both communities also had Chinatowns. The latter was formed in 1883 as a result of a copper smelting operation. The Chinese community was originally centered on Birch Street, between Front Street and East Park Avenue. Some of the first businesses in Anaconda were the Sing Lee Laundry and the Tri Yeun Company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Butte is the hidden soul of Montana. It began as a mining town in the 19th century and quickly grew into a vibrant community with people of all races. The town has always been a strong union town, and its socialist tradition is evident in its progressive political tradition. There are also a number of historic buildings and parks in the Butte. The Butte and Anaconda historical society is an important part of Butte and Anaconda&#8217;s rich history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the Butte and Anaconda historic district is a popular tourist destination, its history and heritage are also important. These towns have a rich history that includes a vibrant community and a vibrant minority culture. Butte was founded in 1891 and incorporated in 1907. It was chartered as a common carrier in 1893 and became a town in Montana. Its residents have lived there since that time and have a unique sense of place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Butte and Anaconda Historic District is a U.S. National Historic Landmark District that spans the towns of Butte and Walkerville.
