Get out of the city and bring your next group tour to historic Richmond. Located just 20 miles southwest of Houston, the Fort Bend Museum is "one of Texas' best local history showcases," according to the Texas Historical Commission.
The Museum is located in the heart of the Historic District surrounded by magnificent oak and magnolia trees. Only minutes away from the hustle and bustle of Houston, a tour of Richmond offers an opportunity to step back in time and experience the relaxed, friendly atmosphere of small town Texas. Come and walk in the footsteps of true Texas heroes like Jane Long, Mirabeau B. Lamar, Deaf Smith and Carrie Nation.
