Visit our main location to learn about Lake Jackson's rich history. Your tour guide will lead you throughout the museum starting with the Karankawa Native Americans and touching on the Jackson Plantation Historic Site, the development of the city of Lake Jackson, the influence of Alden B. Dow and Dr. A.P. Beutel, and more! Field trip scavenger hunts are available upon request.
The Alden B. Dow Office museum has played a large role in Lake Jackson's history and development. The space has housed multiple businesses and organizations and has since been restored to it's original form. Come learn about its interesting past and see our rotating exhibits! The Healing Pioneers is currently on display. This exhibit celebrates Lake Jackson's first medical professionals.
Please note: the space can accommodate approximately 45 people at a time, making it great for specialized field trips!
The Jackson Plantation Historic Site, a formerly operating sugar mill, is now an archaeological site. The site contains the remains of the main house, the mill, and several other buildings left behind after the Hurricane of 1900.
