The Colburn Earth Science Museum, a downtown fixture since 1960, began as the Colburn Gem and Mineral Museum. Still home to the amazing collection of gems and minerals that have made it world renowned, the Colburn expanded its mission in 2002 to include all the earth sciences.
With interactive, hands-on exhibits on geology, plate tectonics, meteorology, and the history of mining in Western North Carolina, the Colburn Earth Science Museum is truly a place where the earth comes alive for visitors of all ages. Located on the lower level of Pack Place in the heart of Asheville near restaurants and shops, a visit to the Colburn is an adventure of discovery that the whole family will enjoy.
