Explore Naval History at the Battleship Texas State Historic Site

September 15, 2014 1:40 pm

Experience an important part of naval history on the Battleship Texas, which was deployed in both World War I and II. Located on the Buffalo Bayou in the Houston Ship Channel, the vessel became the first of its kind to be turned into a museum in 1948. It’s now part of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's 1,200-acre San Jacinto Battleground State Historic Site.

Visitors can explore the ship from the 60-foot flying bridge to the engine room, sleeping quarters, and medical center below deck. The Battleship Texas Youth Overnight program gives youth groups a chance to experience a sleepover on the ship and see what life as a Navy sailor during World War II was like.

Battleship Texas is open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. Admission to the park is $12 for adults and children over age 12.
