Stroll through Historic Heritage Square for a visual feast that delves into the rich history of Phoenix's Victorian past. The Rosson House dates back to the late 1800s and is the Square's centerpiece and a sight to behold. The historic architecture remains intact, while the buildings have become museums, shops, and restaurants. Whether you're a history buff, a foodie, or just looking for a peaceful place to unwind, Heritage Square has something for everyone. Remember to acknowledge the O'Odham and Piipaash peoples and their ancestors, whose traditional territory and homelands we now stand on.
Take the chance to explore the Arizona Capitol Museum and learn about Arizona's bootstrapping attitude and dynamic history. Discover more than 20 exhibits that showcase the evolution of Arizona from its territorial beginnings to the present day.

Visitors can explore displays highlighting Arizona's state symbols, the USS Arizona, and photographs by Edward S. Curtis. There's something for everyone to enjoy. One of the most impactful exhibits is the Arizona Gratitude Train boxcar, sent to the state as a token of gratitude from France after World War II.
