Julia Staab is La Posada’s famous ghost. Her story begins in 1865 in Germany when she married Abraham Staab. He brought his bride to Santa Fe, and the two settled into a grand home, running the local social and political circuit. Julia died in 1896 at just 52 years old.
Today, Julia is tethered to La Posada, which was built around the Staabs’ grand home in the 1930s. Visitors see her roaming the common areas, and housekeepers see her face reflected in the mirrors. La Posada loves to celebrate its benevolent spirit with special ghost tours and a signature margarita: the Juliarita.
