That history is alive and well today in the city’s many historic districts and in the multiple museums that call the area home, including the Colorado Railroad Museum, Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum, and more. Golden is also home to the Colorado School of Mines, an institution highly regarded for its engineering prowess, which lends to the energetic feel of the locale.
