Red Onion Saloon

Red Onion Saloon on the corner of 2nd and Broadway in the municipality of Skagway Alaska U.S.A.

 

The Red Onion Saloon originally opened for business in 1898 at the height of the Klondike Gold Rush, and was considered Skagway's most exclusive bordello at the time. It was built by planks cut by Captain William Moore, the founder of Skagway, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Landmarks.
