About the Business
Texas Independence Hall, located at 23400 Park Road 12 in Washington, Texas, is a historic institution that commemorates the pivotal moment in Texas history when 59 men gathered in an unfinished frame building to declare Texas independent from Mexico and establish the Republic of Texas in 1836. This significant event took place amidst the siege of the Alamo by General Santa Anna, showcasing the bravery and determination of the early Texas settlers.
Visitors to Texas Independence Hall can immerse themselves in the rich history of Texas through exhibits, educational programs, and group tours. The institution also offers special events such as "Independence Eve" celebrations to honor and remember the sacrifices made by the brave men who signed the Texas Declaration of Independence.
In addition, Texas Independence Hall is home to the Star of the Republic Museum, which is dedicated to preserving the legacy of the Texas spirit and honoring the descendants of the signers of the Texas Declaration of Independence. Descendants of these brave men can apply to have their names added to a registry of documented descendants and receive a complimentary one-year membership in the Park Association.
Whether you are a history enthusiast, a descendant of the Texas Declaration signers, or simply a proud Texan, Texas Independence Hall is a must-visit destination to learn about the founding of the Republic of Texas and celebrate the independent spirit of the Lone Star State.
Reviews
"Learning the history of the Texas Independence Hall was quite interesting. And about the town that had been there! The guide was super friendly and he told the story quite well. He also said that they're hoping to build some more replicated buildings for the small town, which sounds awesome. If you like history and just a nice little outing with the family or by yourself, I highly recommend this!"
"Great tour guide made this simple building come alive with the history of the location. Definitely worth the visit, particularly in March/April as the wildflowers bloom"
"enjoyed the history and the personal"
"Nice little tour they have here. The guides are very informative and lively. They are not monotone robots. This is a reproduction but it looks great and tried to make it as historically accurate as possible. Great for learning more history and taking a short hike down to the pecan tree. There are also little trails out here. Wonderful overall experience ⭐️"
"Not much to look at and is a reproduction, not the original, but it does provide some context to the conditions delegates met at the Convention of 1836."
