Review:

The Texas Energy Museum is another popular Beaumont venue telling the story of the Texas oil boom. This is high-tech history at its finest, with robotic characters sharing the historic 1901 Spindletop oil discovery. Visitors can follow the oil industry from discovery to modern refining. The evolution of petroleum science and technology is a fascinating one. There is also a collection of maps, photos, and other historical documents related to the Texas oil fields for those wishing to dig deeper, although research arrangements must be made in advance. Group tours must also be reserved in advance.
