Challis Brewery Historic District is a historic district listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
It includes four buildings from the 1879-founded Klug Brewery. Fred Albiez, Ferdinand Klug, and George Fuchs teamed up to open the brewery; it may have closed by 1886.
In 1980 it was claimed that there had been no operating breweries at all in Idaho for twenty years; this brewery was deemed notable as one of only two surviving former breweries.
The main building is a 37.5 by 28 feet (11.4 m × 8.5 m) cut stone and rubble brewery building. There are also two rubble-stone houses and a stone-walled outbuilding, and the stone foundation of another building.
