The history of Cimarron is rich and interesting, and visitors can still enjoy it today! Several buildings and sites stand as a testament to the town's wilder days. Stop by any local business or our Visitor Center and pick up a self-guided Historic Walking Tour of Old Town Cimarron map and its companion, A Brief History of Cimarron.The historic walking tour includes a look at the old jail, stage office, St. James Hotel, and more. In all there are 14 historic sites dating back to the mid 1800s within a short 30-60 minute walk. Brass plaques mounted on stone pillars guide the way and present information about each historic site, and local history, including the Santa Fe Trail, Lucien Maxwell and his 1,713,000-acre Land Grant, and the Colfax County War. Guided tours are also available through Legends by Lantern Light Tours which adds many local tales and ghost stories to the adventure.
To experience Cimarron through the lives of its early inhabitants, pick up a copy of For Good or Bad, by historian Stephen Zimmer, available at the Cimarron Visitor Center, the Philmont Museum and other local businesses.
