Goldfield Ghost Town

Goldfield Ghost Town A town on a hill between the Superstition Mountains and the Goldfield Mountains. Just five years after it began, the town found itself quickly dying.
(3982)

Goldfield’s bustling days were quickly dashed when the vein of gold ore started to play out and the grade of the ore dropped even more. The miners moved on, the post office was discontinued on November 2, 1898, and Goldfield became a ghost town. Today, Goldfield is filled with authentic looking buildings, includes underground mine tours, and the only narrow gauge railroad in operation in Arizona.

Numerous shops and buildings include a brothel, bakery, leather works, a jail, livery, and more. The authentic looking street is filled with people in period costume, horses and wagons, and sometimes authentic gunfighter presentations

Today, we celebrate something truly extraordinary—250 years of American independence.

On July 4, 1776, our nation’s founders declared that freedom, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness were rights worth fighting for. For 250 years, generations of brave men and women have defended those ideals, making it possible for us to enjoy the freedoms we cherish today.

As we celebrate America’s 250th birthday, we remember those who came before us, honor those who continue to serve, and appreciate the blessings of living in this incredible country. Today is about family, friends, community, gratitude, and the enduring spirit that has made America strong for two and a half centuries.
