Fort Vasquez Museum

Local nameOld Fort Vasquez
LocationColorado, United States

Fort Vasquez is a former fur trading post 35 miles northeast of Denver, Colorado, United States, founded by Louis Vasquez and Andrew Sublette in 1835. Restored by the Works Progress Administration in the 1930s, it now lies in a rather incongruous position as U.S. Route 85 splits to run either side of the building. History Colorado took possession of the property in 1958 and runs it as a museum to display exhibits of the fur-trade era.
