If you know where to look, you can discover all sorts of hidden gems around town. Here are a few to get you started.

The Black Diamond Historical Museum and Coal Miners' Honor Garden

From coal mining and logging in the late 1800s to the close-knit community it is today, Black Diamond is proud of its heritage. The best place to see how the town has evolved over the years is the Black Diamond Historical Museum. Established, curated and managed by the Black Diamond Historical Society, the museum preserves and celebrates everything that makes this community unique. 32527 Railroad Ave. Black Diamond, WA 98010 360-886-2142 Thursdays 9:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.; Weekends: Noon-4:00 p.m. While you’re there, stop by the Coal Miners' Honor Garden. Also managed by the Historical Society, it serves to remember 1,100 coal miners who lost their lives in Washington State.

Railroad Avenue

Railroad Avenue was the site of the Columbia & Puget Sound Railway (later the Pacific Coast Railway) which connected Black Diamond to Seattle. While the many of the original buildings burned down in 1913, the remaining structures house some of the best eats in the area. You can also discover vintage treasures at Black Diamond Antiques.

Black Diamond Cemetery, Union Stump, and Morganville

From the mining districts of England, Wales, Italy, Austria, Poland, Germany, and even Australia, the coal mines in Black Diamond attracted workers from all over the world. The cemetery has more than 1,200 graves and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in April 2000. Nearby is Union Stump and Morganville, both of which played important roles in the unionization movement of miners in Black Diamond in the early part of the 20th century.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
