About Limon Heritage Museum And Railroad Park

This five-acre complex sits just off I-70 on the eastern Colorado plains. Visitors can tour a restored railroad depot built in 1910, climb aboard a caboose and dining car, and step into an 1894 one-room schoolhouse. The grounds also hold antique windmills, vintage farm machinery, and well-kept gardens. An exhibit building traces the area's development and includes a gallery of local voices and a military history display. The museum is seasonal and is currently closed until its next opening.
