I really hope they are able to open back up soon. They have the most beautiful and extensive collection of rocks ,minerals and gems from all over the world. Every stone looks polished and well taken care of.nI spent hours gawking at the beautiful displays. The gold section was gorgeous. I’ve been wanting to go back to share this place with some of my friends but due to the present situation I’ll have to just show them pictures. Please donate! Hopefully we can soon.
Little Al shows evidence of the short and savage life of a carnivorous Dinosaur, like Big Al, Little Al had a rough life, Little Al would've hunted Othneilia, Young Dryosaurus,
I loved this place! I really appreciated that it was free because I unfortunately did not have a lot of time to go through the museum as thoroughly as I would have preferred. I hope to return some day because they have a wonderful collection and the staff is really friendly. 5 stars, 10/10 would go again!
Great variety of minerals on display. Fun little challenge for the kids. Some truly amazing rock features on display. Great thing to visit when in Golden. I would definitely like to visit again. Some nice rocks and gifts available in the gift shop.
A wonderful little museum with lots of minerals and gems on display and some cool history behind the mines in Colorado. There's a small corner with lots of great fossils as well and the chance to see and touch some meteorites. Museum is free and just asks for donations. Parking is free on the weekends behind the building and seems to be free on the street as well.
