The Huerfano Heritage Center

The Huerfano Heritage Center The Huerfano Heritage Center is a History Museum dedicated to the preservation and sharing of the history of Huerfano County, Colorado. Tirey Estate.

The Huerfano Heritage Center is administered by the Huerfano County Historical Society (HCHS), founded in 1959 as a service organization to preserve and share the history of Huerfano County, Colorado. Essential to our pursuit these goals has been the generous support we have received from our members and the broader community. For instance, the Huerfano Heritage Center would not exist in its pres

ent location without the help of the San Isabel Electric Association, which was instrumental to the HCHS acquiring the building. Once acquired, the costs of operating the Heritage Center has been covered largely by an endowment from the Alton M. We are also indebted to the many local businesses and residents who have helped us to better preserve and celebrate the history of Huerfano County. Services:
