History
Holy Cross City is an extinct town located in Eagle County, Colorado, United States. Holy Cross City got its name from Mount of the Holy Cross, located nearby. The Holy Cross post office operated from January 23, 1882, until February 8, 1899, and from December 7, 1904, until August 7, 1905. Presently, the former townsite is located along Holy Cross City Trail within Holy Cross Wilderness, part of White River National Forest. The Mount of the Holy Cross is not visible from the townsite.
