PUEBLO COLORED ORPHANAGE AND OLD FOLKS HOME/LINCOLN HOME

Constructed between 1889 and 1904, the two houses were purchased in 1914 to serve as the Lincoln Home. In operation until 1963, Pueblo’s entire black community took an interest in the property’s management. It served as the only known orphanage of its type in Colorado, and the sixteen Federated Colored Women’s Clubs throughout the state supported its Operation.  Designated 12/10/1997, 5PE.571
