One of the highlights of our recent trip was the time we spent in Mesa Verde. Through the help of guides we were able to get a better understanding of the peoples who settled in this area and the cultures that they developed.

Their settlements preceded the coming by the Europeans by centuries and their culture included a knowledge of astronomy, engineering, irrigation, agriculture, and many other aspects.

If you are interested in learning more about their settlements and culture, you might find this website helpful:

Built in 1923, this Pueblo Revival-style building was designed under the purview of superintendent Jesse L. Nusbaum, and constructed to serve as a Comfort Station, or Restroom, for Mesa Verde National Park, being renovated to serve as a Post Office in 1936, following the renovation of the basement of the Community Center to replace the original Comfort Station. The building is clad in rough-hewn stone with casement windows, a front porch, vigas, and parapets. The building is a contributing structure in the Mesa Verde Administrative District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987.

Built in the 1200s, this Ancestral Puebloan Cliff Dwelling is known as the House of Many Windows, and features 15 rooms and a kiva. The structure, located in a small crevice within a cliff, likely housed an extended Ancestral Puebloan family. The building is relatively narrow and has multiple windows on the stone facade, which is wedged between two rock layers in a small alcove. The structure and the park were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966, and were designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1978. Today, the structure remains as one of many ancient cliff dwellings within the park.

Built in 1925, this Pueblo Revival-style building was designed under the purview of superintendent Jesse L. Nusbaum, and built as a Ranger Club and Dormitory for Mesa Verde National Park, later being converted into a Library and Archives. The building is clad in rough-hewn stone with casement windows, porches, vigas, and parapets. The building is a contributing structure in the Mesa Verde Administrative District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987.

Built in the Ancestral Puebloans, these smaller structures are located close to Spruce Tree House at Mesa Verde National Park, and date to the 12th or 13th Century. The buildings are relatively small in scale, consisting of a few walls and single openings, being far more simple in their form than the more elaborate cliff dwellings, but demonstrate the variety of scale of the cliff dwellings built by the Ancestral Puebloans at Mesa Verde for a variety of purposes. The structures and the park were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966, and were designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1978. Today, the structures remain as some of many ancient cliff dwellings within the park.

The area today contains the only indoor overnight tourist accommodations within the park, as well as one of two eateries within the park.

Inside, the building houses a large auditorium, a gift shop, a lobby, and exhibit spaces, with exhibits having been recently revised with input from the Puebloan people whose ancestors built the archaeological remains within the park. The interior also features plaster walls with decorative stenciling, wooden ceilings with circular log beams, decorative carved woodwork, a semi-circular corner fireplace, and stained concrete floors. The building is a contributing structure in the Mesa Verde Administrative District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987.

Built between 1190 and 1260, this Ancestral Puebloan Cliff Dwelling is known as Cliff Palace, and is the largest cliff dwelling at Mesa Verde National Park, as well as the largest cliff dwelling in North America. The building contains 150 rooms and 23 kivas, and was home to approximately 100 people. Believed to have been a major Ancestral Puebloan ceremonial, social, and administrative center within Mesa Verde, Cliff Palace fell into disrepair following the migration of its residents, with the process of deterioration accelerating after its discovery by European-Americans in 1888, which was partially the impetus for the area’s designation as a National Park. Following the creation of the park, the ruins were stabilized and reconstituted, with fallen stone being placed back onto the ruins, including on the buildings and terraces. Archaeological, reconstitution, and stabilization work on the Cliff Palace was undertaken between 1906 and 1922, with portions of the structure being rebuilt in a manner that was inferred from other structures in the park, or conjecture. The kivas and terraces were unearthed and stabilized, and the ruins were eventually opened to visitors, allowing the cliff dwelling to be directly experienced. The structure and the park were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966, and were designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1978. Today, Cliff Palace is open for guided tours, which allow visitors to traverse the main terrace with a ranger.
