The Background of the Palmer Lake Historical Society
In 1956, a group of residents recommended that a manuscript detailing the founding of Monument, Palmer Lake and the surrounding Palmer Divide region be published. To accomplish this, they also recommended that a historical society be formed to continue the preservation of the area's history.
At the Lucretia Vaile Museum in Palmer Lake, CO you will find exhibits showcasing the Palmer Divide history. The Palmer Lake Historical Society is a 501 (C)(3) educational non-profit organization. All staff and board members are volunteers serving the community, sharing history and stories of the past.
