History on the Astoria Column

Astoria Column Murals including Lewis and Clark Built in 1926, the Astoria Column at the top of Coxcomb Hill, does not have such a long history itself, but it is painted with a long and winding mural that tells of the region's history for several hundred years.

  6. There is a smaller model of the column somewhere in town (not sure if at the Astoria/Warrenton Chamber or one of the museums. We used to display it when manning a booth at the Oregon State Fair.
