Mayborn Museum Complex, Waco
Hotels in Waco
This expansive museum complex includes exhibits on natural
and social history of this region. Learn more about Waco with a visit
to the Waco at the Crossroads of Texas Natural History Exhibits, which
includes three walk-in dioramas of a limestone cave, Texas forest, and
Waco mammoth experience.
A popular area with children is the Discovery Center,
where 16 themed rooms offer hands-on learning in areas that range from
vertebrates to TV weather to Native Americans.
Beyond the museum walls, the learning continues in
15 wood frame buildings found on the 13-acre Governor Bill and Vara
Daniel Historic Village, a recreation of nineteenth-century cotton
town. It includes a schoolhouse, a mercantile store, and, of course, a
Wild West saloon. The buildings, once the property of the Governor, were
moved to this site from a plantation community in Liberty County, Texas
and restored by Baylor University.
