Frisco Historic Park & Museum

Colorado

The Frisco Historic Park & Museum is a Town of Frisco park of original historic buildings at 120 East Main Street, including the Schoolhouse Museum, which holds artifacts, exhibits and photographs and an extensive train diorama (the town's page advises bringing quarters for it). Admission is free, there is no set entrance or exit, and the park is open Tuesday-Sunday 10:00am-5:00pm and closed Monday. The town's page also carries a notice that the Annie Ruth House is closed "until further notice" for a preservation project, so which buildings are open can be confirmed at 970-668-3428.
