Discover the rich history of Texas' largest European immigrant group through an immersive tour that highlights architecture, furniture, and traditional trades. Between 1865 and 1900, approximately 40,000 Germans settled in Texas, shaping communities across the state from the coastal plain to the Hill Country. This cultural influence remains visible today in historic dance halls, shooting clubs, churches, schools, and other landmarks. Visitors will enjoy the stories behind the artifacts, furniture collections, and structures such as the 1847 Kellum-Noble House, the 1868 San Felipe Cottage, and the 1891 St. John Church, all carefully preserved within Sam Houston Park.
Tours are available Tuesday through Saturday at 10:00 a.m., 11:30 a.m., 1:00 p.m., and 2:30 p.m., with tickets priced at $17 for adults, $14 for seniors, $7 for students aged 6–12, and free for members and children 5 and under. Guests should check in at the museum gallery’s gift shop at 1100 Bagby Street, arriving 10–15 minutes early to allow time for parking and a short walk through the campus.
