    This was a great place to learn all about Texas it had many cool things in it. It was quite empty we only saw about two other families in there with us, which was kind of nice. I'd say that it is a little bit cold in there but it is fine. You also have to pay for parking there but the museum is free.

    After 20 years in SA, I finally had my first visit. They are currently in the process of closing so the parking and admission were free. There is so much history there and still so many things to see. Visit and see for yourself before it’s too late (Closing May 2024).

    This is a free museum, donations welcome. There are a lot of neat exhibits and helpful volunteers. My daughter wove a friendship bracelet. These Bibles are handwritten in Aramaic and Arabic from Lebanon. Plus alot if art, textiles and Indigenous displays.

    Took my sons to view a part of our Texas history. I visited here almost 20+ years ago. New displays and still a great experience in our Texas culture. Also, free but taking donations. Worth it.

    Easy directions, straight to the parking lot. There for a black history function, 'Quilt in a Jar'. Viewed the exhibit hall, got insight to the multicultural makeup of San Antonio. Totally awesome. This was my second visit and it did not disappoint.
