The Barney Ford Museum is a must-stop on your visit to Breckenridge. Located downtown across the street from the Welcome Center, the Barney Ford Museum tells the remarkable story of Barney Ford who escaped slavery and eventually became one of the most prosperous businessmen in Colorado in the late 1800s. He was also an early civil rights leader. Guests can take a guided tour through the museum with one of Breckenridge History's expert guides or choose a self-guided option. Expect to spend about 20-30 minutes on your visit. The museum is free; donations are appreciated. Closed on major holidays. We are open for summer 2022!
