About Schulenburg Historical Museum

The museum aims to collect, protect, and show historical objects and events from Schulenburg's past, teaching visitors about how the town grew and how earlier generations lived. Its story begins with a railroad town that rose quickly after tracks reached the area in 1873, when cotton and hides were shipped from the station. The exhibits occupy a former mercantile building from the early 1900s that the Wolters family made available to the museum, and the family later deeded the building and a neighboring one to the museum. Admission is free, though donations are welcome to help cover running costs and upkeep of two historic buildings.
