Things to do in Helena
Helena was founded in 1864 after prospectors struck gold in Last Chance Gulch, and the fortunes made here built ornate commercial blocks and mansions that still line its streets. Today the capital’s economy centers on state government, along with healthcare, Carroll College, a large VA medical center at Fort Harrison and the Montana National Guard. The Montana Legislature meets in odd-numbered years from January into spring, bringing lawmakers, lobbyists and advocates to town for months at a time, and state agencies draw a steady flow of business visitors.
