Casa Navarro State Historic Site

"Fun quiet place with great staff. This is a location that is in the city center but just off the touristic areas. Interesting and underrepresented history of Texas and San Antonio."

"What an unexpected find! I wish this historic site made more of San Antonio to do list! This museum is very interactive for kids of all ages. Lots of digital media too, which is always a plus in my book. I will be sure to share this with many community members and take our out of town guest. I give a 10 out of 10."

"Great history experience of Texas and Mexican History! Not a big place to explore, but a lot of history to learn about this man. And it was inexpensive! Highly recommended if you're a fan of history!"

"I live in San Antonio and have never been here until today. The staff was super friendly and answered all my questions that I had after I walked through. I learned a lot. There are tons of videos and a lot of interactive exhibits. I was the only one there so it was a very pleasant experience. The only thing is that a lot of the information is sort of repetitive so after a while you stop reading as you get more into the museum."

"An understated and modest museum in acknowledgement to a very important San Antonio, Texas and Tejano figure. The home is well kept with two main structures for touring. The outside kitchen and the main house. There are some period pieces but mainly interpretive text panels give a rich context to Navarro’s role in Texas and Tejano history set in Laredito neighborhood of San Antonio. The signatures exhibit was an interesting nod to the use of unique touches used back in mid to late 1800s. I liked also the flag associated with Mexican independence as well as the early symbol of the eagle with the nopal. The gift shop has books and some logo items of the museum as well as some artisan items from a local shop in San Antonio. A good place to visit for San Antonio and Texas history. He was an amazing advocate for Tejanos."
