Philipsburg, Mining town in Granite County, Montana.
Located at an elevation of 1598 meters, Philipsburg extends across 0.80 square miles of Montana's mountainous terrain near numerous lakes and mineral deposits.
Founded during the 1867 mining rush, Philip Deidesheimer established the settlement after designing an ore smelter for processing silver and gold from local mines.
The town maintains its connection to mining traditions through sapphire panning activities, guided mine tours, and preservation of nineteenth-century architecture.
Philipsburg sits between Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks, offering accommodations and services approximately four hours from both major destinations.
The Philipsburg Brewing Company operates from two restored historic buildings, including the former Silver Springs Brewery and the Sayrs Building from 1888.
