We are located in the historic administration buildings across I-25 from the Pueblo steel works. Hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Tours by appointment. 719-564-9086.

By year's end, The Steelworks Museum of Industry and Culture will open its doors to the public featuring exhibits, an education room, computer lab and gift shop.
