"Marfa Presidio County Museum" Marfa Things to Do Tip by Basaic

The Marfa Presidio County Museum is located on US Highway 90 near the center of town. It is housed in the old Humphries House, which was built in 1883 and is a registered historical landmark. The museum contains a nice collection of artifacts that includes fossils, native American and early settler tools as well as information on the area's early ranching, rural life and military history. An extensive collection of photographs detailing the history of this region is also displayed. The day I was there they were having an open house which included free food and wine. It was packed. It seemed obvious the people of Marfa are very proud and very supportive of their museum. Admision is free, but donations are appreciated. The museum is open Tuesday through Saturday, year round from 2 PM to 5 PM.
