The Sam Houston Memorial Museum, an integral part of Sam Houston State University, serves as a vital educational resource for diverse audiences, from local residents to international visitors.
The Museum's primary focus is on the lives of Sam and Margaret Houston, their family, and other significant figures who played a crucial role in the early history, cultures, and development of Texas and the Southwest, particularly during the period of 1832-1863 and their enduring relevance to Texas today.
Situated on approximately fifteen acres of the Houston farm in Huntsville, Texas, the Museum offers a unique opportunity to explore the remarkable life of Sam Houston and experience daily life on his historic homestead.
Visitors can explore the Memorial Museum itself, two homes where Sam Houston and his family resided, other significant historical structures on the grounds, and the Katy & E. Don Walker, Sr. Education Center. Convenient parking is available on-site or at the Katy & E. Don Walker, Sr. Education Center.
