The Industrial Core, located within Keweenaw National Historical Park boundaries and adjacent to the village of Calumet, is a key visitor attraction. Throughout the summer months, visitors routinely tour the area with the aid of established interpretive wayside exhibits and a self-guided brochure. This is also the location for ranger-guided programs.
