Overview:

The Golden Pioneer Museum is located in the heart of Golden's historic downtown.  Our permanent exhibits provide a wonderful walk through Golden history, and our special exhibits highlight fascinating lesser-known subjects. 

Plan to spend a day with us!  Our outdoor patio provides enchanting views of Clear Creek and the mountains.  Our reading room offers plenty of historic photos and newspaper accounts to keep you busy.  The gift shop features a revolving set of offerings by local artists, as well as books about Golden history and pioneer life.

Ready to stretch your legs?  We have wonderful heritage gardens around the museum, well worth perusing.  A walking/bike path runs right behind the museum, running along both sides of Clear Creek.  Enjoy the mountains, the public sculpture collection, Golden's charming architecture, and beautiful Clear Creek running through it all!
