Red Onion Saloon

A visit to Skagway would not be complete without a stop at the Historic Red Onion Saloon. Located on the corner of 2nd & Broadway, the Red Onion is a favorite among visitors and locals alike. Built in 1897, the Red Onion Saloon operated as one the finest bordellos in Skagway and though times have changed, the spirit has not. Speaking of spirits, the Red Onion Saloon is reportedly haunted. The downstairs area (the saloon) is relatively quiet, but the second floor (the madame's room) hosts a bevy of unexplainable activity. Everything from disembodied voices, disembodied smells, and wispy apparitions have been reported. Men beware! One of the presences doesn't take too kindly to your type.
