A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held Saturday to celebrate the milestone in their recovery process.
SUPERIOR, Colo. — The Town of Superior marked a significant milestone in its recovery from the devastating 2021 Marshall Fire on Saturday with a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the reopening of its historical museum. The museum, originally a 100-year-old mine camp house, had been reduced to ashes in the fire.
Planning for the museum's reconstruction began in late 2022, with construction starting in November 2023. The project was a collaborative effort involving the town's Historic Commission, Lions Club of Colorado, Schneider Construction, Architectural Workshop, and numerous community members and donors.
For the community, the reconstruction of the museum symbolizes the resilience and enduring spirit of the town. "This is an important moment for Superior because, while we are able to recapture a part of our history by rebuilding our historical museum, we’re also able to reach an important milestone in our recovery from the Marshall Fire," he stated.
