Anasazi Heritage Center - Dolores, Colorado


The Anasazi Heritage Center is a museum that interprets the amazing history and diverse culture of the Four Corners region. The center offers films, hands-on discovery area and permanent exhibits which all explore archaeology, local history and Pueblo, Ute and Navajo life ways. The Anasazi Heritage Center is home to over two million artifacts from southwest Colorado.

They offer a wide variety of activities. Grind corn, weave on a loom, use microscopes and touch real artifacts. View amazing pithouse replicas, films and exhibits. The Anasazi Heritage Center is located right outside Dolores Colorado and only 17 miles from Mesa Verde.

 While we were there, a group of school children were on a field trip.  They all had their question sheet to fill out from various parts of the museum.
