About the Museum
The Animas Museum is owned and operated by the La Plata County Historical Society, whose directors and staff have transformed the 1904 Animas City School building into a charming local history museum.

The Mission of the La Plata County Historical Society is to collect, preserve, and interpret the history and culture of the San Juan Basin with a focus on La Plata County, Colorado.

The Museum offers a variety of exhibits and programs for all ages, and is also home to our research library and photo archives.
