Why locals recommend it
It’s rare to find a stone building in San Francisco that predates the 1906 earthquake, so this 1874 survivor is a real gem. The Mint borrows its Doric columns, entablature, and pediment from the architecture of ancient Greek temples, but the architect, Alfred B. Mullett, used a later Roman interpretation of the Greek style on this imposing landmark. Check out the Mint’s public calendar to see when you can get inside.
