If you are looking for a place to learn about history of this area, you might want to visit this museum. We did not expect much but it has a lot of interesting exhibits (medical equipment, ship models, cowboy hats, boots, Uniforms). You can see artifacts from different periods and cultures. We enjoyed our time there and stayed for an hour. It was a worthwhile experience.

Very interesting and surprisingly big museum. I honestly wasn’t going in with high expectations, but the amount of historical artifacts in here is nice. There’s no entry fee, but they do suggest donation amounts based on the size of your group, which wasn’t bad at all. If you’re looking for something to do in Wichita Falls then here you go!

There is so much to see here! It’s hard to take it all in. Pace yourself and plan to make at least two visits.I enjoyed my visit. There is so much to learn and read. I really enjoyed the uniforms. Learning about the history of nursing and the college was really exciting.I am so glad there was at least a room dedicated to women. The walls of hats was surprising. I enjoyed the reconstructed building facades of the post office and store fronts.I had never seen a side-saddle until I visited. The theater is also full of information. I would like to watch a movie there.This museum is in a good location. One of the rooms was having a new exhibition installed when I visited. I think I would visit again with my family in the future. The museum is free but asks for a $5 donation. It is well worth $5.I hope they get some grants soon to get more staff, improve the venue, and exhibits.

Recently we were in Wichita Falls and took a day to visit the Museum of North Texas History. This small museum was amazing. They have a lot of military memorabilia and tie it to the area. They also have the hallway lined with a history of the town. It is free to visit and there is a box for donations...it is well worth the visit and well worth a donation!

This is a Jewel in the heart of downtown Wichita Falls. The 1st time I went I was amazed at the collection of farm and ranch items. They also have a few rooms that honor and recognize the military. The cost is free!

Excellent museum in a convenient downtown location. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Free, though encouraged to donate (please do!). Highlights: picture wall timeline of Wichita Falls colorful history, Indian artifacts, cowboy hats, western boots, medical equipment, and large detailed models of US military ships from 1850-1950. Great labeling explaining all display items.

I've been going to the Museum of North Texas History from time to time when I'm in Wichita Falls, Texas for the experience of learning more this city's great history. Easy to find thanks to the wonderful signage in the front, I was able to explore the vast Western history and military displays. This museum is a pretty decent size and even has a theater room in it for various movies. I'd recommend this museum to anyone who wants to learn more of this destination city.

Best point of interest in the city, shame it's not more popular. Stopping is highly recommended if you are in the area. Admissions are free with donations welcome.
