There are outdoor activities near town. Just outside of Seligman is a unique outdoor spot that you will enjoy visiting. The Grand Canyon Caverns offers a tour that will take you back in time. Here, you will see what the earth is like 21 stories below. Seligman is known for being a stop along Route 66. Route 66 is one of the most famous roads in America. You will learn a lot about the original Route 66 and of course you will want to take a spin down the old highway. There are several businesses in Seligman that cater to those interested in the nostalgia of the “Mother Road.”
History:
Seligman has gone through several name changes. In the beginning, the area was known as Mint Valley. It was the valley where the pioneers on the Beale Wagon Road passed through in the mid 1800's.
Later, the town was called Prescott Junction. In 1886, Tom Bullock arrived in the area and convinced the residents in Prescott to gather money together to build a railroad line. The line connected Prescott to the Atlantic and Pacific main line, where Seligman is today. They called that point, Prescott Junction.
Bullock was charged to build the rail connecting these points by a designated date. This deal soon became a hot topic in Prescott. Many people began taking bets on whether Bullock could get the task done in time. He did meet the deadline and the rail was used by two steam engines. At first, the train had to run backwards back to Prescott Junction because there wasn't a turntable in Prescott.
The first post office was established in the same year the line was constructed. When the Prescott and Central Arizona Railroad went out of business, the rail between Prescott and Prescott Junction shut down too. It was at this time that Prescott Junction changed its name to Seligman. The name Seligman came from two brothers, who were part owners in the Aztec Land and Cattle Company. The Seligman brothers most importantly owned stock in the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad. In the late 1890's, the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad became the Santa Fe Railroad. The railroad also moved its roundhouse to Seligman.
During the late 1920's, the automobile became a popular means of transportation. Route 66 was constructed which connected Chicago to California. The road made Seligman a place where drivers stopped over for the night. Throughout the years, Route 66 was a boost to the town's economy.
Seligman started to slow down in the late 1970's and mid 1980's. It was during this time, that Interstate 40 replaced Route 66 and bypassed the town, coupled with the Santa Fe Railroad closing down its operations.
Seligman continues to relive its past. The town has worked hard to preserve the nostalgia of Route 66. In 1987, the State of Arizona dedicated Route 66 from Seligman to Kingman. This stretch of road is the longest remaining stretch of the original highway. The preservation of the past is evident in town with many businesses catering to Historic Route 66 buffs. The town is unincorporated.
