When you walk in, you are greeted with a smile. The two ladies that was there today was AWESOME! They were nice enough to give me a brief but detailed overview of the history of the Dickinson house. The quilt on the bed is what I found to be so amazing, as it is signed but all the living descendants of the survivors of the Alamo. If you get the chance please go check it out.

Excellent puzzle piece of Texas history discussed more broadly at the Bullock Texas History Museum. Bart was well-versed on the subject matter in addition to providing easy banter on Texas history. Finally, great location along with having air conditioning which is significant in July.

It’s small because it used to be people’s house. The door is closed but they are open. Just knock on the door and enter. People are friendly and enthusiastic to give you some background introductions.

Street parking is $1.20 per hour. I stayed for two. I was quite happy because not only is this Museum free, the O. HENRY or Sydney Porter museum is next door to this Museum. So you get visit two amazing museums. The docents or workers are very polite. The quality of the homes are beautifully maintain. Both museums / homes have central air condition and heating systems that was a plus. My children truly enjoyed their visit. My husband who is not a museum visiting type but, was intrigued by all the information and structure of the home. There is a small Library in the home. There, I read the David Crockett comic story to the children and they loved it. They are many other books as well in regards to the Texas history.

Great museum preserving the account of the Alamo and its survivors. If you are a fan of Texas history you will want to put this on your list. It is free, donations only, but it is nice to walk on a piece of texas past. Cant wait to bring our little one here.
