“A True Look Into the History of Mining”
Castle Dome Museum is a non-profit museum/ghost town dedicated to the preservation and restoration of Castle Dome City. Castle Dome city sits on a location changed little by time allowing people to visit a true time capsule of old west history. There are over 50 weather-beaten buildings that give you the impression that you just discovered a lost city. Castle Dome sits on the second patented mine in 1871 and it is the longest worked mining district Colorado river adventures in the state. We found a lot of artifacts they left behind. These items have told us, some amazing things happened here. There are over 300 mines in the Castle Dome District We have explored all the mines and have pulled out most of the artifacts for the museum The town sits on 3 patented mining claims the Floral Temple, Floral Temple extension and the Castle Dome. We just finished restoring the three stamp mill so that should be running this winter . We just bought the Hull mine which is 170 acres so we're expanding the museum over there and plan to do underground mine tours.
