Reviews
"Small museum will take about 20 minutes to see. It's $3, which is not bad. I have to say that I had never heard of the Republic of the Rio Grande. It is surprising this topic is not covered at all in school--even as a passing note. It's a simple museum, but I was enamored by the history."
"Very cute and interesting museum! Cost was $3, with very nice staff and a good selection of gifts for purchase"
"Such amazing history and displays. Wife and I really enjoyed it. It is small but the content inside makes up for it!"
"Awesome history. Great displays and the stories behind them."
"The best little must see of early TEXAS history. Confederate history and Laredo TX history. Great building I hope they restore the roof on soon. Cost 2 bucks but worth more. I liked everything about it and will return some day."
