Capitol Hill Denver

Capitol Hill

This neighborhood offers a vibrant mix of arts, culture, and Colorado history. Explore the gold-domed Colorado State Capitol with its “Mile High” marker on the thirteenth step. Civic Center Park plays host to live music and food trucks Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from May-October. You’ll find some of Denver’s finest museums nestled among the beautiful turn-of-the-century mansions of “Cap Hill,” including the Molly Brown House Museum, which tells the story of “The Unsinkable Molly Brown.”

Capitol Hill runs from East Colfax Ave to East Seventh Ave and from Broadway to Downing Street. Nearby, in the Golden Triangle Creative District, don’t miss the Denver Art Museum, Kirkland Museum of Fine & Decorative Art, and the Clyfford Still Museum. With galleries, fine-art studios, museums, specialty stores, restaurants, nightclubs, coffeehouses, and cafes, the neighborhood is a great place to explore on foot.
