Paris Mill
The Paris Mill, a well-known and cherished
historic mining mill near Alma was named one of Colorado’s Most
Endangered Places in 2004 by Colorado Preservation Inc.
The facility was built to stamp and crush gold ore
during the mining boom of the late 1800’s. It was last used
during the 1970’s by the Mount Bross Mining Company to re-process
old mine waste piles.
“Among hundreds of properties and structures
evaluated in a 1996 study of the region’s heritage resources, the
Paris Mill was ranked as the highest preservation priority in South
Park,” according to Gary Nichols, Park County Community Development
Director.
The Alma Foundation is working with Colorado
Preservation Inc. as well as numerous other organizations and
individuals to save the Paris Mill, which is currently owned by Park
County
