Mineral Palace Park sits on 57.17 acres of land and is located between the 1500 and 2100 blocks of North Santa Fe Drive. In addition to the amenities listed above, the park boasts the beautiful Lake Clara.

During the late 1880's plans to build a palace to display and advertise Colorado's mineral wealth were finalized. The Colorado Mineral Palace was to be located on 27 acres north of the Pueblo business district and within a short distance of the Denver and Rio Grande Depot. Even though it was underfunded and difficult to complete, the Colorado Mineral Pal­ace opened with great fanfare on July 4, 1891, with the Cowboy Band of Silverton, Colorado furnishing the music. Without a doubt the Mineral Palace was the most interesting building ever constructed in Pueblo. Its grounds were Pueblo's first major flower gardens.
