Tabor Opera House
Next door is the famous Tabor Opera House. Opening
on November 20, 1879, the Tabor Opera
House is one of only a few “Tabor” associated
building still standing in Colorado. Tabor was a shopkeeper who
grubstaked a couple of miners who struck it rich. He became wealthy
overnight. The divorce of his first wife, Augusta, and marriage
to the beautiful Baby Doe is the well-known story of the Tabor
Triangle. The Opera House was said to be the finest theater between
St. Louis and San Francisco when it was built. It is open for
tours during the summer months.
