South Park City Museum

South Park City Museum South Park City is an outside historic museum with 42 original furnished buildings and structures depicting an 1880s-era mining town.

South Park City is a re-creation of an 1860s - 1890s gold mining town of the Colorado Rocky Mountains, with 48 buildings and structures collected from area ghost towns, open for visitors and furnished with artifacts of the era. The buildings include a church, school, dentist/barber, doctor, coffin-maker, blacksmith, saloon, drug store, general store, homes, train engine and caboose, and other structures that portray life in an early gold mining town in the Colorado Rockies. Visitors can walk into each building, and try out the furniture, play the pianos, ring the school bell, and stroll along the boardwalk, and, in the process, get a real feel for life in the Old West.
