Camp Colorado Replica

The Camp Colorado Replica in Coleman, Texas, is a historic site listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 2018. Located in Coleman City Park, this replica commemorates the original Camp Colorado, established in 1855 as a military outpost to protect settlers from Native American tribes. The camp played a significant role during the Civil War, with most troops joining the Confederate Army, leading to its temporary abandonment. The site was later revitalized by H.H. Sackett in the late 19th century. Visitors can explore this piece of Texas history and learn about its military significance and the challenges faced by early settlers.
