The Log House, located on Colorado Avenue west of South 24th Street, dates back to the early days of Colorado City, Colorado’s first designated territorial capital, now part of Colorado Springs. Built in 1859, it is the only remaining building associated with the territorial legislative assemblies that met there in 1861 and 1862. A historical plaque recognizing its significance was placed at the site in 1959. #loghouse #historic #oldcoloradocity #coloradosprings #colorado

It took five tries over seventeen years for Colorado to become a state. Why did four attempts fail, and the fifth succeed? That’s the story behind 38th Star: Colorado Becomes the Centennial State, an exhibition now on view at the History Colorado Center. This exhibition explores Colorado’s long road to statehood. Our first four attempts at statehood throughout the 1860s were derailed by questions like who should be allowed to vote and what policies the government should adopt. Which economic int

In 1859, Earth was hit by the strongest solar storm ever recorded, called the Carrington Event. One morning, an astronomer named Richard Carrington saw a sudden, blinding flash on the Sun — a massive eruption. About 17 hours later, the charged particles slammed into Earth with unbelievable force. The night sky lit up with auroras so bright that people in the Caribbean thought the sky was on fire. Miners in Colorado woke up thinking it was sunrise… at 1 a.m. In the U.S. and Europe, telegraph syst

Do you know how the Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs got its name? Two surveyors named Rufus Cable and Melancthon Beach were in the area doing a survey in 1859 for a possible townsite. Melancthon mentioned to Rufus that the view reminded him of an elaborate European beer garden. In response, Rufus is quoted as saying: "A beer garden indeed, this place is fit for the gods to assemble! We shall call it Garden of the Gods."

We know Colorado as the Centennial State because it became a state in 1876, 100 years after the United States declared independence from Great Britain. But that almost wasn’t the case. It took 17 years and five attempts for Colorado to join the Union. Katherine Mercier, exhibition developer and historian at History Colorado, explains Colorado’s long road to statehood.

Long before Cheesman Park became a popular gathering place, it was the home of Denver's first cemetery...Mt. Prospect Cemetery. Back in 1859, Denver's founder, General William Larimer, set aside 320-acres for a cemetery. Originally designed to cater to the wealthy and affluent, a lack of water for making the grounds "pretty", led to the cemetery primarily being used to bury the poor, criminals, and small pox victims. In 1890, Senator Henry M. Teller, convinced the U.S. Congress to allow the ceme
