The Gilpin Historical Society's mission is to discover, procure, preserve and display whatever maybe related to the civil, social and economic history of the county of Gilpin, and to establish and maintain collections of information, records, and objects related to or having a bearing on the history of said county, and to keep such collections for reference in suitable locations. In addition to maintaining the museum's collection, the society also operates the Gilpin History Museum, the Thomas House Museum, the Coeur d'Alene Mine Shaft House, and leads tours of St. James Methodist Church, the Teller House, Opera House, and the Weekly Register-Call Print Shop.
