Old Fort Graham

U.S. military post established in 1849. As line of settlement moved westward, the need for the fort was less and troops withdrawn in 1853. Original location in Lake Whitney bed. When lake was built, much of the ruins and rock transported to new site and used in the reconstruction. One-room rock building houses mementos of early days of Whitney and other artifacts. Open Memorial Day - Labor Day, Sat. 10 a.m. - 4 p.m., Sun. 1 p.m. - 4 p.m.

Texas Heritage Museum's focus is Texas military history, from the Texas Revolution through Vietnam. We have a memorial on the front lawn to native-born Texan Medal of Honor recipients. Onsite within the museum is also the Historical Research Center, used most often to research Civil War service records, and the Hill College Press, which publishes a book a year about Texas military or North Central Texas history.
