Review:
One of Texas’s most famous features is its long history as an oil-producing state, and the Texas Energy Museum tells this story in a manner that is interesting for children and adults alike. Located in downtown Beaumont, Texas, this museum discusses the development of petroleum refinery technology and the modern use of chemistry in this industry.
A set of friendly robot “actors” shares the tale of the 1901 Spindletop gusher, the first significant gusher of the Texas Oil Boom. In addition to its permanent collection, the museum also hosts children’s group educational programs and seasonal presentations about Texas’s oil-rich history.
