Did you know that the Denver Catholic turns 124 on St. Patrick’s Day this year? That’s a whole lot of parish potlucks, priestly ordinations and countless other Catholic events that this storied publication has covered over the years.
If you’ve ever been curious about what was printed in the Denver Catholic (also still affectionately called The Register by many) on your birthday, then you’re in luck: you can look back and find out with the new and improved Archdiocese of Denver digital historical archives!
In addition to high-quality scans of every single issue of the Denver Catholic and its previous iterations, the archive also features a plethora of charming historical yearbooks, scrapbooks, high school newspapers and much more showcasing the rich history of the archdiocese. Also included are previous issues of our Spanish sister publication, El Pueblo Católico.
The historical digital archives are an invaluable resource for both Church and Colorado history buffs alike, and if we’re being honest, it’s a much better use of time than doomscrolling through social media. So what are you waiting for? Dive in and see what historical gems you can find!
