 Idaho
Springs has a population of 1,893 (and growing!) and is the
largest town in Clear Creek County.
Idaho Springs and the Clear Creek County
area offer many possibilities for exploring the history of the
area, recreational opportunities and other activities.
The Idaho Springs City Hall (shown at
right) is the old Grass Valley School House. In 1984 the
school was due to be destroyed. The City of Idaho Springs
bought the building and had the school house moved to its
current location. The building now holds City Hall, the Idaho
Springs Police Department and the Idaho Springs Municipal
Court.
