Originally founded in 1972 in response to the planned demolition of the Astor House, Golden Landmarks Association (GLA), a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, encourages the study and documentation of history and traditions in and around Golden, Colorado. Our mission is to encourage preservation of and public conversation about both natural and man-made features including historic structures, photographs, literature, furniture and other artifacts. GLA’s office serves as a resource for anyone wishing to access the historic information we archive.
Our educational projects raise public awareness of Golden’s unique history. Our efforts include:
• Preservation of historic photograph and artifacts of the Golden area including the Richard Ronzio and Pete Morrison collections
• Restoration and preservation of architecturally significant structures such as the Brickyard House
• Honoring Living Landmarks who are people or organizations who have made significant contributions to Golden and its rich history
• Working with other historic preservation organizations including those in the City of Golden, Jefferson County, the Greater Denver-Metro area and the State of Colorado
