Museum
The Museum and Gift Shop are housed in the last public school building of the Chappell Hill I.S.D. The red brick structure is located on the site of the Chappell Hill Female College. Built in 1927 it served as only one of the schools in the area until 1965.
The completely redesigned Museum tells the intriguing story of a town once seemingly destined for greatness, but diminshed by the ill fortunes of fate and history.
Exhibits of photos, documents and artifacts give a glimpse of the town from its beginnings in 1847 to the present day. Visitors have the opportunity to learn about Soule University for men, The Chappell Hill Female College, King Cotton, the Brazos river, the Polish community, and the War-Between-the-States.
The Museums availability for event rental is directed by exhibit display.
The Museum will be a featured stop on the Tour de Lavender during the Lavender Fest Saturday, August 9. The Providence Baptist Church will also be open to the public. August 9 hours: 9:00 - 3:00
