History Colorado Center

The History Colorado Center is a museum in Denver spread across four floors with exhibits about Colorado's past. The displays feature photographs, artifacts, and documents that tell the story of how the region developed from its earliest inhabitants to the present day.

The museum was established to preserve and share Colorado's history from Native American times through the present day. It documents the stories of settlers, miners, and immigrants who transformed the region.

The museum shows how mining communities, farming settlements, and different ethnic groups built Colorado over time. You can see their lives reflected in objects and stories displayed throughout the exhibits.

The museum is open daily during daytime hours, making it an easy destination to visit on most schedules. Plan to spend several hours walking through all four floors at a comfortable pace.

One unusual feature is an interactive time machine simulation that transports visitors through different periods of Colorado's past. Using mechanical and digital effects, you can experience how people lived in earlier eras.
