The Vanishing Texana Museum, offers an impressive collection of antiquities, curiosities, ephemera and vestiges from the region and beyond, with the majority of the items dated from 1830 through 1950. Items from foreign regions, however, date as far back as 238 A.D.! An extensive Antique Coin Exhibition showcases currency hailing from the Roman Empire.
Some of the unusual items include the Noell Madstone – a pioneer application for the ‘cure’ of rabies-, a quilt from the Civil War, and the only Texas flag that has been to the moon.
It also hosts a variety of railroad items, hotel relics and agricultural items that outline the history of the community. Inside the walls you’ll also find manual typewriters, dinosaur bones, swords, guns, coins and currency, games, dolls, bottles, photographs, scales, sewing machines and everything in between.
The museum’s divided into several categories, with free admission and tours catered to your interests available to all visitors.
