[TELLURIDE HISTORICAL MUSEUM]

The Telluride Historical Museum offers far more than artifacts under glass. The history of this region is part of what gives Telluride its colorful character. Our mission is to preserve and promote the rich and colorful history of the region.  We do this bringing it to life through interactive exhibits, programming and outreach..

Aside from a visit to our museum, join Telluride locals for one of our Mountain Village Owners Association sponsored Fireside Chats, take a Telluride Afoot audio walking tour, read Harriet Backus' Tomboy Bride or take a hike into the high country in celebration of our rich history.

Please poke around in our modern-day website and learn more about Telluride History. Then come see us in person!
