Visit us at Garden of Gods Trading Post

In the early 1900's local Indian Trader, Charles E. Strasenback built the Trading Post to resemble the homes of the Pueblo Indians. Through the 1950's, Native American silversmiths and artisians worked and lived at the Trading Post fashioning jewelry, weaving blankets, and creating baskets and pottery.

While maintaining its heritage, the Garden of the Gods Trading Post has expanded seven times. Our historic building has the largest collection of Native American Art in the state of Colorado. We have a vast array of Colorado Artists who work in all mediums, including jewelry, glass work, beading, photography, natural fibers, weaving, and original oils. We are the largest gift facility in the state with some of the most unique gift items ranging from the United States to as far as Mozambique, Africa!
