A downtown district open for discovery

Here in Old Town Lafayette, we believe the best memories start with an impromptu journey.

Old Town Lafayette embraces discovery and diversity to create a place like no other. At every corner of our district, you’ll find a new sight to see and a new path to explore.

Founded in 1888, our town has a passion for breaking conventions. From alleyways of artwork to an eclectic mix of restaurants, museums, businesses, and attractions, our free-form style can serve every side of you, even the parts you haven’t discovered yet.

We’re a creative hub that embraces self-expression, but our heart is in the community we serve. From artists to artisans and small businesses to nonprofits, our urban identity is rooted in the people who call Old Town Lafayette home.

Things to Do

When you visit our unique downtown, discovery awaits. Whether you are a Lafayette local, out-of-town traveler, or day-tripper, you’re welcome to wander the attractions, activities, businesses, and artwork that make our district a destination like no other.

Featured Business

Anspach’s Jewelry

Lafayette’s local gem, Anspach’s Jewelry, is getting a shiny new look in 2023. Glen and Dee Anspach brought their jewelry, watch, and repair business to Lafayette in 1955, and were welcomed with open arms and community support from the beginning. Their business was later taken over by their son, Graig Anspach, who continues his parent’s legacy of being fair, honest, doing great work, and treating every customer with compassion and respect. The Anspach team prides themselves in knowing what good customer service is and has been engaging with customers locally, from surrounding communities, and even internationally for decades and decades. Graig and his nephew, Ty Kuppinger, decided their business needed an upgrade, and are now in the process of completing a store-wide renovation that will be completed in April of this year. 

Anspach’s Jewelry is currently still open for business during the construction, so call      (303) 665-5313 or visit their store between Tuesday – Friday from 10 AM-5 PM and Saturday from 10 AM-4 PM.
