New Almaden Mining Blacksmith completed restoration and was
dedicated in 2004, on the 150th anniversary celebration of Casa Grande's construction. The blacksmith building was originally the carriage house for the mine managers who resided at
Casa Grande.
The blacksmith shop is stocked with artifacts of another time and place. It fits in nicely with the nearby Quicksilver Mining Museum at Casa Grande.
