Designed by Gilbert Stanley Underwood in the National Park Service rustic style, the Giant Forest Museum opened in 2001 as a visitor center within Sequoia National Park in Tulare County, California. The museum interprets the Giant Forest area's defining features—its monumental giant sequoias, alpine meadows, and human heritage—serving as both an educational facility and an official Passport to Your National Parks cancellation location. Now a contributing property to the National Register of Historic Places, it exemplifies the enduring architectural vocabulary of the National Park Service.
