MOHAI

Museum of History and Indusrty

Set along the shores of Lake Union, MOHAI brings Seattle’s past, present, and future to life through engaging exhibits and hands-on experiences. Located in a historic Naval Reserve building, the museum highlights the people, ideas, and innovations that shaped the region, from maritime history and local industry to technology, music, and culture. Interactive galleries make MOHAI especially appealing for families, while rotating exhibitions give returning visitors something new to discover.

A visit to MOHAI also places guests in the heart of Lake Union Park, where waterfront paths, historic vessels, and scenic views invite more time outdoors. Nearby attractions include South Lake Union, kayaking and paddleboarding on the water, and additional cultural spots within easy reach. Together, MOHAI and its surroundings offer an engaging and educational way to experience Seattle’s character.
