Heritage Museum
Turn right (south on Harrison Avenue) and begin
your tour down Leadville’s main street walking on the south
side of the street in front of the Healy House.
The brick building at the northeast corner of Harrison
and 9th is the Heritage Museum.
Built as the Carnegie Library, it opened in 1904, two years after
the cornerstone date of 1902. It served as the library for the
area until 1971 when it was turned into a local museum. It is
open during the summer months and houses a scale model of the
Leadville Ice Palace, an excellent display of 10th Mountain Division
memorabilia and various Leadville artifacts.
