Jewish History, POI & Kosher Establishments in Colorado Springs

By the spring of 1859, fortune seekers began to arrive in droves. During the "big excitement," as the year of the gold discovery was called, at least 12 Jews of German descent migrated to Colorado to join the hunt for freedom, new opportunities, and wealth. Few Jews were miners, but most established small businesses in new towns and mining camps throughout Colorado. Since 1900 the Jewish population in Colorado Springs has grown from about 100 to 5,000 people, with some 500 families practicing the faith at three congregations. Kosher food can be obtained from Chabad of Southern Colorado.
