Casa Navarro is a historic site in San Antonio, Bexar County, in the U.S. state of Texas. The original house complex was the residence of Texas patriot José Antonio Navarro, a rancher, merchant, leading advocate for Tejano rights, and one of only two native-born Texans to sign the Texas Declaration of Independence.

This is from an accessibility standpoint. I needed to go around by two blocks across terrifying terrain to access the site. The sidewalk to access looked too narrow (it was) for my motorized wheelchair to pass… so.. I turned around to access the site on the street with cars. At the end of that block I did find a ramp. Up on the sidewalk there was no way to enter and it appeared closed during business hours. There was no room to turn my chair so I needed to go through the too small space at the corner across from the statue.

The gift shop has books and some logo items of the museum as well as some artisan items from a local shop in San Antonio.

Our family of 6 got in for $10 as they have a family price. Remarkable man, wonderful visit. Hands on, kid friendly historical site. Very Clean restrooms. This is truly a must for anyone who really wants to know Texan History from a true Texan born and raised under 6 flags transfer.
It’s pretty stupid that they fail to include the Casa Navarro on many of the maps given out, but this is truly unbeatable. The richness learned here is unlike all the other sites. We visited the Briscoe’s Western Art Museum, National Park Missions, Spanish Governor’s Palace, Alamo. Amazing Man, worth more than...
