Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum

Panhandle

Where else can you cover 26,000 square miles in a day on foot? From dinosaurs to conquistadors, you'll find it all in Texas' largest history museum. Relive the stories of courage and hardship, victory and defeat over the past 14,000 years. Step in and step back to the Old West in a life-size Pioneer Town, view one of the Southwest's finest art collections, experience the exciting history of the petroleum industry, and more. The transportation collection is proud to include one of the oldest Ford automobiles in existence: a 1903 Ford Model A serial #28. Automobiles are exhibited in a re-created car dealership, picnic scene, 50s diner and drive-in movie theater. Other items on exhibit are late 19th and early 20th bicycles and motorcycles as well as automobiles dating from the 1900s through 1960s. These vehicles are used to augment the story of motorized transportation and its role in American history.
