Doss Heritage and Culture Center

The history and culture of Parker County, Texas is covered in this small museum. Native Americans, cattle drives, pioneer life, and local celebrities are included in the permanent exhibits. Temporary exhibits, when we visited, featured female pilots in WWII, local celebrities, archeology, and amazing pictures made by weaving beads on a small loom.

Four cabins have been relocated to the grounds and are open to the public during special events or by scheduled tours. The paved pathways are open during museum hours. We did not visit the cabins due to rainy weather.

The museum is accessible. The pathways at the cabins are accessible but I don't think the cabins themselves are. 

The parking lot is large enough for any vehicle. It's horseshoe shaped. only 55' wide, and has one entrance/exit. This may be problematic for long vehicles towed or towing.  Museum  32.7418, -97.78376

    1. They love longhorns in east Texas. Every little ranch has a small herd. Their horns are not as long as the museum's though!
