Item Description
The mission of the Telluride Historical Museum is to preserve the rich, colorful and diverse history of the region and to bring history to life through exhibits, programs and education.
We envision a museum that is an indispensable cultural asset which reaches beyond its walls to engage people by bringing history to life.
Built in 1896 as Hall’s Hospital, 201 West Gregory Avenue served as Telluride’s hospital until 1964 when, due to a diminishing population, the hospital was closed. In 1966 the hospital re-opened as the Telluride Historical Museum.
Through the generosity of the American Legion Post and the Fairlamb Family, the town was able to acquire the historic building. In 1995, part of the exterior masonry crumbled, but Telluride voters elected to allocate public funds for restoration of the building. Seven years and $2 million later, the Telluride Historical Museum re-opened with a reinforced structure and a new blueprint for showcasing exhibits.
