Richmond was incorporated in 1905, but a San Francisco legislator christened the area “Richmond” after his hometown in Virginia in 1854. This city on the San Francisco Bay contained the world’s largest winery until Prohibition shut it down in 1919. Manufacturing ramped up in the 1930s thanks to the building of a Ford Motor Company factory. World War II brought about a population and economic explosion due to the construction of the Richmond Shipyards, which were used to produce American warships. After the war, the population declined steadily over decades before increasing again as nearby cities like Oakland and San Francisco also grew. Today, more than 116,000 people live in this city that’s part of San Francisco’s East Bay region.

The Rosie the Riveter/World War II Home Front National Historical Park is one of the best places to visit to learn more about Richmond’s history, but there are plenty of other fascinating historic attractions in town. One of these is Point Richmond, which was Richmond’s first community. Shops, restaurants, and more are contained in lovely Victorian architecture that brings the past to life. You can also visit Winehaven, which is all that remains of the large winery shut down at the start of Prohibition. If you want to see some impressive stonework constructed during the Great Depression, you should pay a visit to Alvarado Park. 

The Richmond Art Center features exhibitions and a gallery, so it’s a great place to learn about local art. You can also stop by the NIAD Art Center, which contains the Florence Ludins-Katz Gallery and a gift shop. Masquers Theater and the East Bay Center for the Performing Arts are excellent places to catch a show. 

Unsurprisingly, Richmond is home to multiple outstanding regional parks on the San Francisco Bay. One of these is the Miller/Knox Regional Shoreline, which features a swimming beach, picnic area, and model railroad museum. Another popular option is the Point Pinole Regional Shoreline, which has multiple places for fishing, hiking, biking, and riding within its 2,432 acres.
