Introduction

The Story of Texas — This state-of-the-art museum features exhibits and interactive experiences that trace Texas history from before European exploration to the early 1970s. A 400-seat IMAX® Theatre features 2-D and 3-D films. The Texas Spirit Theater’s “Star of Destiny” presentation is a brief history of the Lone Star State, including three-dimensional images, special lighting and sound effects, as well as shaking seats as visitors witness a gusher from a Texas oil derrick and the takeoff of a Saturn V rocket. Underground parking garage available; call the museum for information on where to park buses, RVs and other large vehicles.
