Castle Rock Depot (Castle Rock Historical Museum)
Douglas County
The 1875 building is a rare example of a stone depot constructed by the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad. Castle Rock quarries yielded the high quality rhyolite stone used in the depot’s construction.
A private owner moved the building to its present location in 1970 to serve as a private residence. The depot now serves as a museum. The property is associated with the Railroads in Colorado, 1858-1948 Multiple Property Submission.
