Astor
House Museum... Locatedin Golden, the Astor house was built in 1867 by Seth Lake, a man who had become rich from the mining activity around Golden City. Lake "spared no pains or expense"
in making his new hotel "the handsomest as well as the most substantial
hotel building in Colorado." He used horse-drawn stone barges
to move the stone necessary to make the walls of the hotel 18 inches
thick.
The Astor House was built next door to the Territorial Capital
where Senators met until the following year The once hotel now serves as one of the few museums portraying turn-of-the-century frontier boarding house life. For more information call (303) 278-3557. Click here to go back to things to menu. |
