Salem

Salem is best known in Oregon for serving as the state capital and housing the Oregon State Capitol. Set in the Willamette Valley beside the Willamette River, the city combines government institutions with an agricultural region known for farms, vineyards and nurseries. The Art Deco Capitol, completed in 1938 and crowned by the gilded Oregon Pioneer, is Salem’s defining civic landmark. Downtown streets, Riverfront Park and the pedestrian Union Street Railroad Bridge connect the center to the riverbank. Salem also hosts the annual Oregon State Fair, a longstanding statewide tradition. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding Willamette Valley to extend your view of Salem.
