Old Colorado City, founded in 1859, is located on the west side of Colorado Springs. Boasting a rich and colorful history, it was the first capital of the Territory of Colorado and the center of early settlement in the Pikes Peak region. Designated a National Historic District in 1982, restoration efforts have resulted in a physical and cultural recovery of the area. Fine old brick structures, quaint alleyways, and territorial charm provide the setting for small thriving shops, galleries, and restaurants. Lovely Bed & Breakfast Inns and other fine accommodations in the area make Old Colorado City a choice destination site for getaway weekends and extended-stay vacations.
There are lots of neat events happening all year long, including the annual St. Patrick's Day Parade, Territory Days in late May, street dances and concerts throughout the summer, Scarecrow Days in the fall, and a "Rocky Mountain Christmas" with parades, hayrides and beautiful decorations during the Christmas season. A farmer's market convenes every Saturday from late spring through November on 24th Street between Colorado and Pikes Peak avenues.
Old Colorado City offers an exciting mix of unique eateries, art galleries, boutiques, and specialty shops and it is just minutes away from the Garden of the Gods, the Broadmoor Hotel, Pikes Peak, and downtown Colorado Springs!
Come browse the shops and art galleries, enjoy fine dining, visit the history center or attend a seasonal event. Whatever your pleasure, a trip to Old Colorado City will be a richly rewarding experience.
