Wright's Opera House

Wright's Opera House

Wright's Opera House, sometimes referred to as Wright's Hall, was constructed in 1888 and is located on Main Street in Ouray, Colorado. For many years after the mining bust and subsequent end of performances it was used as a multi-use building for presentations and community events. Around the year 2000 it was converted into a movie theater which operated until late 2006. Currently it sits empty, awaiting a buyer.

This structure has been placed on the United States National Register of Historic Places.
