Founded in 1975, the NAHS serves to rescue, preserve and exhibit records and artifacts about
Nederland area history and the Front Range mining heritage. It restored and documented
Nederland’s pioneer cemetery and operates the area’s only Mining Museum and the
1907 Gillaspie House Museum. It sponsors exhibits, school programs, and the annual
Nederland Miners’ Days festival and
competition. Run entirely by volunteers, NAHS is a non-profit corporation registered as a
501(c)(3) tax charity in the State of Colorado.
NEDERLAND MUSEUMS
The MINING MUSEUM, opened in May 2004 in the historic County Stone Garage, contains
artifacts and equipment used by Nederland area miners. Ore samples, machines, tools,
photographs, newspapers, catalogs and maps record our mining heritage. Historic photos
and mining memorabilia are offered at its Gift Shop.
The historic GILLASPIE HOUSE, built in 1907, displays clothing, accessories, and
furnishings found in typical early Nederland homes.
