Following the popularity of the movie Titanic, the name Molly Brown has experienced a resurrection of sorts. The stories of her life are unusual (and sometimes fabricated) but certainly extend beyond the infamous disaster. Costumed docents will walk you through this well-known Denver landmark as well as the extraordinary life of the "Unsinkable" Molly Brown.
Each year, 40,000 people tour the Molly Brown House for a glimpse into the life of one of Denver's most famous citizens. This heroine of the Titanic was also the subject of many wildly entertaining tales that are certain to evoke a wry smile. One such story involves a young Miss Brown floating down the Mississippi River on a raft that was suddenly capsized by a cyclone, at which point her life was saved by author and American icon Mark Twain. You will have to decide for yourself, which tales are true and which are just added color to an already colorful life. The tour guides can also help separate the truth from the fiction.
The museum building has undergone several changes in tenants over the years. It has gone from private residence to boarding house and even served as the Governors Mansion in 1902, while Molly Brown and her husband were traveling around the world. The building was saved from demolition 1970, when it was purchased by one of the nation's largest conservation groups.
The 45-minute tour is conducted by a knowledgeable group of staff members donning their best period costumes, lending an authentic time travel feel to the museum experience. Tours begin every half hour.
