Moraine Park Museum and Amphitheater, Museum and amphitheater in Rocky Mountain National Park, Larimer County, US.

The museum and amphitheater stand at 8100 feet elevation, featuring stone and plank seating with views of Moraine Park and Big Thompson River.

The National Park Service acquired the property in 1931 and transformed the former Assembly Hall of Moraine Lodge into a museum between 1936 and 1937.

The structures exemplify National Park Service rustic architecture, incorporating local materials and design elements that integrate with the natural environment.

The facility maintains interactive natural history exhibits about geological processes, weather patterns, ecosystems, and environmental education programs throughout the year.

The amphitheater includes original stone gutters, culverts for drainage, and seating areas deliberately positioned among existing trees to maintain the natural setting.

Location: Larimer County

Architects: National Park Service

Architectural style: National Park Service rustic

GPS coordinates: 40.35889,-105.58439
