Take a trip back in time at the Saguache County Museum. Housed in a building partially constructed over 125 years ago. The building once served as a school, temporary courthouse, and as a residence for jailkeepers and their families. Take a step into the past and learn the ways of life from earlier generations. A generation who had to be able to create most of the items they needed. They used and cherished their possessions, either using them until they were worn out and no longer of use or passing them on to the next generation. Join us for a tour to see how the pioneers lived.
