Babe Zaharias Museum & Visitor Center — Attraction in Beaumont

An airplane is on static display, a picnic pavilion is on the grounds & sports playgrounds provided. Disappointed that the park grounds were not better landscaped & maintained. Nothing distinct to set off the life of Babe except the...

Fun stop along I-10. My husband and I had been curious about the museum and Babe for some time and finally decided to stop. The lady at the desk was friendly and helpful. We had just as much fun interacting with her as we did touring the museum. The space is small and doesn’t take long to go through. We were there about a half hour. But it is packed with interesting tidbits about this remarkable athlete. Her Olympic medals were not present, but we still enjoyed...
