Texas Science & Natural History Museum stands among the LBJ Presidential Library, Briscoe Center for American History, and the Darrell K. Royal Texas Memorial Stadium and is the only science museum on The University of Texas at Austin campus.

Founded by the Texas legislature, the Texas Memorial Museum, as it was originally known, was built between 1936-1938 as part of the centennial celebration of Texas' independence from Mexico. The Museum's Art Deco and limestone architecture and location within the university's main campus make it a prominent and historical gem within Austin and across the state of Texas.

Texas Science & Natural History Museum is a destination for education and exploration that inspires lifelong interest in the sciences and natural history.
