Molly Brown's Denver Home
Molly Brown's Denver Home is now a historic house museum. The house was originally built in 1889, so it is 123 years old. Everything inside was sold to the state after Molly's death, and became a boarding house for men and a home for wayward women. It was going to be torn down and become a parking lot, luckily 18 people got together and raised the money to save the house.
