Hutchinson County Museum
Borger, Texas

General, History

The Hutchinson County Museum keeps the colorful history of Hutchinson County alive. We share the story of Coronado who traveled through the Texas Panhandle about 1 mile from the museum; we have artfacts and scale models of buildings from the Battle of Adobe Walls and up through the founding of the county in 1901 and beyond. We have extensive artifacts and detailed exhibits on the oil boom days when Borger was known as "boogertown" with murders daily including the murder of the town' s founder and the murder of a District Attorney attempting to clean up the corruption. We offer a fun and interesting walking tour of the downtown area where most of the action took place. It's all within about 1/4 of a mile from the museum.
