The Hotel Leger began life in 1851 as a wood-framed tent on the corner of Main and Lafayette Streets in the Gold Rush boom town of Mokelumne Hill. Operated by George Lêger and called the Hotel de France, it catered to the large French population that had come to town with hopes of newfound wealth.

Over the years it grew into three separate buildings. One served as the Calaveras County Courthouse from 1855 to 1866. The basement also served as the county jail.

Three devastating fires razed most of Mokelumne Hill in 1854, 1865 and again in 1874. The old stone courthouse was the only building to survive.

Today the Hotel Leger is a “must visit” location in the California Gold Country. Whether you are local to the area, visiting for a weekend or planning an event, there will be something at the Leger for you.
