Tower House District
Whiskeytown National Recreation Area
The story of the Tower House Historic District begins during the California Gold Rush of the early 1850s. It is best told through the lives of two men, Charles Camden and Levi Tower, who were friends, partners and then brothers by marriage. It is a story of perseverance and success for one, of dreams and loss for the other.
