The Ouray County Historical Museum is located in the former Miners Hospital in Ouray Colorado.
They have done a good job of gathering historical artifacts related to most everything that has happened in the county over the years. I find the mining and railroad history of great interest, but they cover everything including ranching, changing technology, fashions, toys, living quarters and much more.
