The Falls on the Colorado Museum — Attraction in Marble Falls

I would recommend this museum to anyone who wants to learn about Texas history or local Burnet County history. I would say that I'm an expert of Texas history, but I still learned a lot about Burnet County. I believe the museum was only founded five years ago, but you can tell there has been a lot of hardworking and caring people that put the museum together. Even though it is on going process to improve the museum, I am really excited to visit in the next few years to see the improvement. It can easily become a main tourist attraction.

We went in looking for a little family history help. I have to say the ladies here are amazing. We first watched them as they artfully lead a group of school children around the exhibits.

The displays are well put together and give a great history of the area, including Rocky. A must see. Really...

This museum sits off the beaten track in Marble Falls, but it is worth a visit! We stopped in and found numerous exhibits of interest on the history and geology of Marble Falls... Including where the unusual name comes from. The docent was very knowledgeable about the particulars of the museum and the area's history, and the museum is located inside a charming old schoolhouse. Overall, I recommend it for anyone with an interest in Texas history or Central Texas history...
