Take a walk through history
The Hopkins County Museum is housed in the architecturally distinct George H. Wilson house. Built in 1910, the house features many unique design elements including double-bricked walls, carved columns, and an unusual Regency-style spherical ceiling rising from four spindled arches. Museum displays include Civil War memorabilia, Caddo Indian relics, miniatures, women's period apparel, a doll collection, and much more. The Heritage Park features 11 acres of historical buildings from Hopkins County which have been relocated to the park for restoration and preservation.


You'll experience the flavor of small town Texas around the turn of the century as you tour such notable structures as a working blacksmith shop, the first brick home in the county, a country store and post office, a bandstand, a grist mill, log houses, farm homes, a chapel, and more. Displays include early agricultural, printing, medical, and broom making equipment. Complete your visit with a stop in the gift shop, featuring books on local and regional history.
