Guldgraverbyen Columbia blev grundlagt i 1850, da der blev fundet guld på stedet, og byen havde på et tidspunkt over 5000 indbyggere. Efter 1860 var det meste guld taget, og byen svandt ind til ca. 500 indbyggere. Forretninger lukkede og huse stod tomme og efterhånden faldefærdige. I 1945 købte Californien det meste af Columbia og restaurerede den som levende museum. The goldrush town of Columbia was established in 1850, when gold was found in the area, and the town had more than 5000 inhabitants at one time. After 1860 most of the gold had been taken, and the town dwindled to about 500 people. Stores closed, houses were abandoned and in time became delapidated. In 1945 California bought most of Columbia and restored it as a living museum.   Columbia Candle & Soap Works   Fallon Hotel & Theater in Columbia     Pioneer Emporium, Columbia, California   Wells Fargo Express, Columbia, California
