Also on display is an excellent collection of items from the early days in the Rio Grande Valley. Over 8000 square feet of exhibits, beginning with prehistoric Indian era through Spanish colonial settlement, ranching, law enforcement, early agriculture, and the bandit era. New and changing exhibits are always on display.
