Ive been going to the Museum of North Texas History from time to time when Im in Wichita Falls, Texas for the experience of learning more this citys great history. Easy to find thanks to the wonderful signage in the front, I was able to explore the vast Western history and military displays. This museum is a pretty decent size and even has a theater room in it for various movies. Id recommend this museum to anyone who wants to learn more of this destination city.

Best point of interest in the city, shame its not more popular. Stopping is highly recommended if you are in the area. Admissions are free with donations welcome.

This place has some amazing facts...check it out

Fantastic museum with great depth of detail in its many interesting artifacts and exhibits. Just a couple hours here and Ive learned so much about life in this area through the ages.Workers were very nice and knowledgeable. They mentioned plans to continue to expanding the displays. I cant wait to find out more about our incredible past!

This self guided museum in downtown is a great that me and my kids absolutely loved.

Very fun local history. As an out of towner I enjoyed learning about Wichita falls local flavor and history

Now heres a local guide gem right here! If youre a history buff and like to see very old things preserved in glass casing, old maps, the iron lung, old military items and fatigues, etc, this is the place for you. Ive been here twice and its pretty awesome, like taking a step back in time. They have a guided tour throughout the museum too. The guide was knowledgeable and didnt rush the tour. Definitely worth checking out if you like all things history. You will certainly learn something you didnt know before.

Friendly staff. Free. Accepts donations. Really nice museum.

So much to see. Truly remarkable. Very interesting. They have about 20 rooms of exhibits.

Great experience visiting. Has a lot of information about Wichita Falls TX and the surrounding area. My favorite part was seeing all of the actual cowboy hats there are hundreds. Had a small cowboy boot section that was also great. Nice to learn about the history of the area in TX

Our museum guide was Don. He was amazing and full of tons of information. We were greeted right away and given a map to explore the museum at our leisure. Don followed along, giving us space to absorb the plethera of informative historical events thoughout Wichita history, while including extra special tidbits of information about the city while we walked. Preservation of museum artifacts was excellent. Everything was clean, titled, labeled and informative. Definitely recommend, plan for a few hours if you really want to see everything.

I was visiting with the family from Miami Fl and it was a delightful experience to visit this museum. Our tour guide was an elder man originally from New York who moved to Texas many year ago and was very knowledgeable about Texas history. The place was very well organized.

One of my favorite museums!!! We were visiting from North Carolina and had a blast. The exhibits were terrific and everyone was SUPER knowledgeable!!! Thanks so much for the education!!!

My sons liked this museum. It was definitely informative. For being free (you can make a donation, which we did), it was totally worth it.

A nice variety of artifacts for its size.

Very interesting. Was there for memorial. Would love to go back and look at all of it

The train display was spectacular!!! Thank you

Best place to visit in Wichita Falls!! So, so much to see! A wealth of history and the curator is a gem. Be sure to talk with him if you can!

There is much here for the history buff. The archives are great but you will have to make arrangements. All Wichita county records are there. There is a lot of attention to the military being a military town. For the price of a donation it is one of the best history museums I have been too.

Tells real history as it was.

A wonderful place to see the history of the local area. The museum docents are very knowledgable. I was there a couple hours and wasnt able to look at everything. The Then and Now exhibit is very interesting. If youre from Wichita Falls, its a must see! The exhibit is over sometime in September.

So much to see, and learn.

Wonderful

Loaded with a lot of local history.Was an enjoyable experience.

Very interesting. Bob taught us a lot

Alot of history for Witchata Texas enjoyed very much

Really enjoyed exploring here. There was quite a lot to look at. Stuff about terrible Tuesday. A room of model ships made from random stuff. Model trains and so much more. Looking forward to the farming wing that is being finished up.

Loved it its worth going and learning the local history

The admission is free, but the doors are locked. Once we rang the doorbell we were quickly greeted by the museum curator who let us in and explained who they were and what the rooms held.He was courteous, knew the area well and suggested other sites and museums to visit later.The selection was very interesting, had a number of historical photos of Wichtia Falls and its founding and other very interesting collections such as typewriters, war memorabilia and oil and gas displays.

Unexpectedly closed for exhibit change, not stated on their website. So we paid for two nights at a crummy campground for nothing.

Great local museum, must see if you come downtown.

The place was boring but the people were nice so 3 stars

Found this little gem downtown Wichita Falls. Lots of history about our area here.

Loved it. Great place and lovely staff of volunteers

Very interesting

A fun place to explore with the family and learn about local history. Some exhibits are temporary and new items are rotated in so you always have something new to see when you visit.

Free! Very interesting! Staff was knowledgeable and helpful. Great find!

History

Really enjoyed Rev White on history of Dr Annie Roark and a look back on the Eastside of Wichita Falls. Each of us have a story of “back in the day”. There’s a lot to share about our history and I’m grateful to Doc Roark.

Very interesting

Tour of miniature working triple deck oil rig

Beautiful town, lots of history, nice people!

A museum from another era that needs some attention. See the iron lung and the miniatures, but be prepared to be disappointed by many of the exhibits.
