History

The Texas Heritage Museum began with the personal collection of Hill College history professor Harold B. Simpson in 1963, and has continued to grow. In 1997, state funding was secured to renovate the old library building and establish the Texas Heritage Museum as a state museum. Today, the Texas Heritage is comprised of three separate divisions: the Galleries and Collection, the Historical Research Center and the Hill College Press. The museum’s mission is to explore Texas and Texans during wartime and how those experiences affect us today.
