About This Event
The 1883 Fort Collins Water Works welcomes visitors to its 2025 open house season on the second Saturday of each month from May through October, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Regular open houses offer self-guided tours of the beautifully preserved Gothic Revival pump house, historic irrigation ditches, vintage apple orchard, and exhibits showcasing the pioneer lifestyle and water history that shaped Fort Collins. The free Big Splash! event on June 14 features live music, fire hose demonstrations, raptor encounters, and interactive water games for all ages. On September 13, the Water Works joins the Historic Homes Tour, providing a special opportunity to explore this historic site. Admission is free; donations are appreciated.
