Beekman Bank Museum

1863 Beekman Bank Museum – the first and oldest financial institution north of San Francisco, its 1863 building located at the corner of California and North 3rd streets has been preserved intact as a museum since Cornelius Beekman closed and locked the doors in 1915.  Over $40 million in gold crossed the counters during Jacksonville’s heyday in the 1800s – equivalent to almost $1 billion today.

Tours of the bank are offered through Historic Jacksonville, Inc.  For the most up to date information on tours of the bank and other programs go to their website.
