This museum provides a cohesive big picture of the history of this region of west Texas. Really enjoyed it.
(Warning: young adults from Central Florida in for vacation) After a great week at BBNP, we entered a rainy weekend in Alpine. The Museum was INDOORS, NEARBY, AND FREE (donations welcome)… yet it FAR EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS of just another way to escape the rain. The museum itself is probably just a little larger than a three-bedroom home yet somehow SO MANY EXHIBITS COVERING A VAST AMOUNT OF TOPICS ARE DISPLAYED- and very organized as well. We saw fossils found around the parks, the history of its geographical formations, historic sites around Alpine, typical goods for sale from stores long ago… the accompanying signs were very informative and there are MANY VISUALS TO CAPTIVATE CHILDREN.
Well curated, interesting mix of Big Bend history from prehistoric to modern. Cold AC
Visited 2 years ago and it was a treasure and will be back to visit next March. Looking forward to this.
AMAZING PLACE TO GO AND VISIT! Great staff also!
