The History Colorado Center in Denver opened on April 28, 2012, as the new home for the state’s historical collections after the former Colorado History Museum closed in 2010. Administered by History Colorado, it combines galleries with the Stephen H. Hart Library and Research Center, whose holdings include artifacts, archives, maps, photographs, and vital records. Its exhibitions connect Colorado’s history to landscapes, communities, and daily life, from Mesa Verde and the Dust Bowl to Keota, Silverton, Rocky Mountain National Park, African-American experiences, and the confinement of Japanese Americans at the Granada War Relocation Center during the Second World War.
