Named after its founder, Texas Lieutenant Governor Bob Bullock, The Bullock Texas State History Museum is located just a few blocks from the Texas State Capitol.
The museum consists of three main themes with interactive exhibits: the first floor tells the story of how Texas was founded; the second floor explains how the state came about and the history behind its name; and the top floor deals with the subject of opportunity.
The museum features the modern, 200-seat Texas Spirit Theater, which offers special effects presentations and shows that take audiences on an unforgettable journey through the history of Texas, as well as a state-of-the-art IMAX theater with 2-D and 3-D capabilities.
