This place is rich with history. Those who might enjoy this place: History Buffs, School-aged kids, WWII Vets, Gulf War Vets, etc. Also, who would enjoy this place are: People who are able to look at the Big Picture and see reality for what it is, Those who appreciate traditional family values, Those who know the value of serving others, those who value all Human Life, including the lives of our enemies overseas- This great man lived such values, as reflected by his quotes which are posted, throughout the museum. What a beautiful story of a great man. The legacy he left should be an inspiration to most Americans!

Nacogdoches Visitor's Center

The Historic Town Center/Visitor Center, located on the square, was built in 1917 as the city’s post office and later served as the public library. In 1996, tourism left the umbrella of the Chamber of Commerce to start what is now the Nacogdoches Convention and Visitors Bureau. Here you can view exhibits of early Nacogdoches, watch the video on Nacogdoches and pick up additional literature on the town. Services are also available for small to medium size groups looking to bring meetings or event to the area. Restroom facilities are available.

This was one of the cleanest, friendliest, most personable visitor centers I have been in in awhile. The bathrooms were spotless, the complementary coffee was welcomed on a cold day, and all of the staff helped with fantastic suggestions for restaurants, places to see, and directions for places I was looking for. A special thank you to Ashley Morgan for answering so many questions with so much grace. Definitely a place I will visit again.
