Learn More

After the first major silver strike in 1871, Silverton became a prosperous mining community. Between 1882 and 1918, the Las Animas district mines produced $65 million in ore. The Grand Imperial Hotel, an 1880s showplace for silver kings, and the gold-domed San Juan County Courthouse are evidence of the opulence of Silverton's bonanza years.
