The 1887 restored jail is home to the San Jacinto County Museum. The museum features items related to the early settlers and history of the region.

The museum's collection includes Indian artifacts, pioneer tools and articles, Early American glassware, and photographs as well as displays on River Boats of the Trinity River and the Civil War.

This recreated village brings the visitor back to the mid to late 1800's. The facility maintains a collection of old buildings and provides demonstrations of pioneer skills.
