The Bimson Blacksmith Shop was constructed in 1893 by Alfred G. Bimson as the first blacksmith shop in Berthoud, Colorado, USA. He designed and built the building out of native Lyons sandstone. The shop remained open until 1943.

The building is currently being used by the Berthoud Historical Society to house the Little Thompson Valley Pioneer Museum.[2]
