Review:
The Bandera County Frontier Times Museum preserves the cultural heritage of Bandera County, and its history as a Texas frontier. Collections, exhibits and educational programming tells the history of the area from the 19th century onward. The museum was built by an eccentric local newspaper publisher in 1933, with an expansion in 1935. The eclectic stone building was pieced together from the rocks of abandoned local ranches, wells and walls dating back to the 1870’s. Exhibits include curiosities ranging from a 2,000 year old corn cob, to a two headed goat and the first piano to arrive in Bandera County. Galleries honor local rodeo stars, and include a Bandera Hall of Fame. A Western Art collection is among the more traditional exhibits, as well as a display on the history of Medina Lake.
