The Sourdough Inn, at First and Sled Streets in Fort Yukon, Alaska, was built in its current location in 1926, by moving a disused Army building from Fort Egbert near Eagle, Alaska. It was then modified and opened as a hotel. It has also been known as the New Sourdough Hotel and as AHRS Site No. FYU-006, and has served as a restaurant and as a hotel and as a post office and, briefly in the 1940s, as a school.
It is a three-story gable-roofed building approximately 24-by-48-foot (7.3 m × 14.6 m) in size, plus a two-story later addition to the back.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997. As of the NRHP listing, it was the only frame building and the only hotel in the community of Fort Yukon.
