The Bryan Museum is housed in the historical Galveston Children's Home (a survivor of the devastating hurricane in 1900). The collection spans the history of our great state from long before Texas was Texas! Art and artifacts are well displayed, well described and so interesting. A MUST for all Texans and visitors! Don't miss it!

We recently traveled to Houston, TX, to learn about the area’s history and cultural attractions and included a stop here. We spent a little over an hour exploring their galleries, full of very nice artifacts, rifles, pistols, spurs, fancy saddles, and more; the top floor had an art gallery as well. Combining this site with tours of the Moody Mansion and Bishop’s Palace made for an enjoyable day in Galveston. Our admission was free through our NARM membership; they offer free onsite parking. Definitely worth checking out!
