The Gardens

GardenWelcome to historic Miramont Castle and the Castle Gardens. With the majesty of the Rocky Mountains rising in the background, these gardens respond with a quiet majesty of their own.

In the spring and summer colorful blooms greet the visitor to the Victorian gardens adjoining the Castle. The gardens are often the scene of summer weddings and also provide a luxuriant background for artists. A variety of plantings bloom throughout the Colorado growing season.

The stone wall on the north side of the upper parking lot was originally a foundation wall of Montcalme Sanitarium, which was destroyed in an electrical fire in 1907.

 

Volunteering

Over ninety-five percent of the interior restoration is being accomplished with the help of civic clubs, groups, and individuals who are contributing their precious time as well as their love to this work.

A number of Colorado-based businesses, both large and small, have donated thousands of dollars worth of materials and/or very generous discounts which have greatly accelerated the restoration timetable.

A substantial part of the expenses involved are paid by donations, by special fund-raising events, and by tours of Miramont.
