Visitors interested in ghost towns should be sure to visit Goldfield. Here they will find a good selection of abandoned boomtown buildings. Goldfield has some operating businesses but visitors should be prepared nevertheless. The town is a favorite haunt of photographers for the many unique sights including the Goldfield Hotel and the Esmeralda County Courthouse.
The First Methodist Episcopal Church in Goldfield is an interesting testament to the city's history. Built in 1908, the church has a rectory located beside it. The buildings have undergone extensive renovations and now house the Parsonage museum.
Contrary to what you might believe, the Goldfield Historic Equipment Park is not an equipment park that deals with gold mining equipment. It is an attraction that houses all manner of equipment from WWII. Old aircraft engines, propellers, and various plane parts are all part of a self-guided tour. The Goldfield Historic Equipment Park is located next to the Goldfield library building.
