Moraine Park - Moraine
Park Museum |
| Built in 1923, the present museum was part of the Moraine Park
Lodge. The building once housed a dance hall and tearoom. The property was
acquired in 1931, and the original Moraine Park Museum opened in 1937. The
Museum was completely renovated and reopened in May 1992. New interactive
displays feature five themes that describe "The Making of a Landscape". The
themes included geologic processes, glaciations, weather and climate,
ecosystems, and human impact. The National Park Service and the Denver Museum
of Natural History produced the displays. |
