History Of Central City

Central City was founded as a mining town in 1859. A prospector named John H. Gregory staked the first ming claim in Central City, and the region soon became known as the “Richest Square Mile on Earth.” By 1960 more than 100 men were arriving in Central City each day in search of gold. The town remained fairly stable, although it suffered its share of fires and floods, until the early 1900s.

In addition to being home to many, the town became a tourist attraction – it still looks similar as it did in the late 1800s – until the economic downturn of the 1980s. When Colorado allowed for gambling, Central City chose to allow casinos. The smallest of the three casino towns in Colorado, it’s now home to six casinos.
