Palisade History Museum

💖Palisade was incorporated on April 4, 1904, so from March 1 until Palisade’s
birthday on April 4, local businesses are offering 1904-themed deals to highlight our rich heritage and encourage visitors to explore Palisade.

🍑 Local restaurants, wineries, shops, and lodging providers are offering exclusive promotions that tie into the 1904 theme. The Palisade Historical Society is offering Guided Walking Tours (normally suggested donation of $5 per person for a minimum of 4 people) for $19.04 regardless of group size! The Palisade History Museum is always FREE admission!

🍇 You’ll find discounts like $19.04 meal specials, 19% off select wines, and even a discount on a Powderhorn lift ticket!

💖 All participating businesses and offerings are listed at VisitPalisade.com/1904.

We have renovated a pre-1939 log building into Palisade’s first history museum as the permanent home for our collection of historic photos, documents, and memorabilia.

Admission is free, and donations are appreciated.

💥All of our 2025 Calendars have found a home!💥

The Palisade Historical Society

The Palisade Historical Society is dedicated to collecting, preserving, and communicating the unique history of this small, Western Colorado town which was settled in the 1890s and incorporated in 1904.

Digitizing The Palisade Tribunes

Another important project has been our work with preserving, digitizing, and adding issues of The Palisade Tribune, our newspaper of record from June 6, 1903 to March 2014 to the Colorado Historic Newspaper Collection database. It is free to search the database, and we continue fundraising to get as many of the remaining issues on the database as possible.

You can even search the database from here!
