"Dallas weekend"
Reviewed February, 2020 by Woolienaz
This was a very nice afternoon. It was very affordable, the staff were helpful and considerate, I would recommend and go back another time.
Dedicated to inspire and educate visitors about the rich and varied cultural, economic, political and social history of the area, the Old Red Museum serves as a symbol of Dallas heritage. Built in 1892, the beautifully restored Old Red Courthouse contains some of Dallas' most fascinating historical artifacts. There is a special exhibit gallery on the first floor, while the second floor is filled with exhibits, 41-touch screen computers, an educational learning center and four mini theatres.
Located at a crossroads of activity in downtown Dallas – adjacent to the JFK Memorial and Dealey Plaza, a National Historic Landmark District, across the street from a replica of Dallas founder John Neely Bryan's cabin and just a block from The Sixth Floor Museum and the historic West End of Dallas. The space is stimulating for any kind of visitor, including students or anyone looking to learn about the history of Dallas County.

Cool building. The second floor is taken up with exhibits with a chronological history of Dallas. But there isn't much depth to any of the topics. At $10, it is a bit steep for what is on offer.

When I was in Dallas, I took the JFK tour. I saw this beautiful building from the outside. Unfortunately it was under construction. I will check it out if and when I go back.
