Visit Fort Chadbourne where history comes alive! Step back in time with an educational and fun tour where history was made! You can see and sit on antique saddles as you watch an Emmy Award winning video of Fort Chadbourne - "The Lost Fort". See over 450 antique firearms, step inside a stagecoach, walk thru a teepee and see many of the over 500,000 artifacts recovered on site at Fort Chadbourne. The Medal of Honor exhibit features the 8 recipients that served at Fort Chadbourne, along all the Medal of Honor's on display. After visiting the museum you can take a tour of the actual historic Fort grounds and envision what life was like on the Texas Frontier. The preservation of Fort Chadbourne has been been done without governmental funds. No state or federal funds were used. The second Thursday of May is our Medal of Honor, "Evening with a Hero" dinner with a Medal of Honor recipient as guest speaker. We also have a yearly fundraising event the 3rd Saturday in September to help with our programs and general operating funds.
