Welcome to Cripple Creek, CO!

Cripple Creek, a gold mining town first mined in 1890, has modernized its gold rush mentality by replacing gold mines with casinos. Today the town's casinos, such as Bronco Billy's, the Colorado Grande and the Imperial, can take a great deal of credit for keeping tourism alive. Cripple Creek is situated 9,494 ft (2894 m) above sea level enabling visitors an amazing view and a unique landscape. Take a tour of the town with the Cripple Creek Ghost Walk Tours and discover interesting facts of times past. The Cripple Creek District Museum is a way to discover American Indian history through artifacts, photographs, maps and letters from the turn of the century. For a deeper look into the history of Cripple Creek, visit the 1500 gravesites at Mount Pisgah Cemetery, one of the oldest historic sites in town, established in 1892.
