Thousands of immigrants made their way through this port, earning it the name "Little Ellis Island." In fact, it's second only to Ellis Island as an immigration station.

You can also take a self-guided tour of th Elissa, an 1877 square-rigged ship that now serves as a maritime museum. Location: Pier 21 Return to Galveston Index |
