Anasazi State Park Museum, Archaeological museum in Boulder, United States.
Anasazi State Park Museum is an archaeology museum in Boulder that focuses on early settlements in the region. It features a life-sized reconstruction of a six-room dwelling and extensive collections of pottery and artifacts from that period.
A major settlement of the Ancestral Puebloans grew here between 1050 and 1175, becoming one of the largest communities west of the Colorado River. The people who lived there eventually moved away, leaving behind structures that archaeologists study today.
The museum displays pottery and everyday objects that show how the Ancestral Puebloans lived and worked. Visitors can see the tools they used, the items they made, and how they organized their homes and community spaces.
The site is easy to explore with both indoor exhibits and open-air structures to visit. It works well for visitors who want to take time to walk around and observe, with clear paths throughout the grounds.
The outdoor area contains ruins and wall remnants that bear traces of a fire from the 12th century. These charred structures give a direct sense of how the settlement met its end.
