About Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park

This national historical park tells the story of President Lyndon B. Johnson in two areas 14 miles apart. In Johnson City you can visit his boyhood home and the Johnson Settlement, where his grandfather's dogtrot house still stands. Near Stonewall, a free permit lets you drive the LBJ Ranch at your own pace, stopping at his birthplace, first school and the family cemetery. The Texas White House complex is closed for rehabilitation.
