WEST TEXAS HERITAGE CENTER

Located at 201 East San Antonio Avenue in downtown El Paso
Open Tuesdays through Saturdays 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

Made possible in part by a grant from El Paso County, Preservation Texas’s West Texas Heritage Center celebrates the rich cultural heritage of El Paso and the greater West Texas region (west of the Pecos River) through rotating exhibits and educational public programs. Visitors can also browse a curated selection of books, prints, artwork, and merchandise that highlight the unique history and architecture of El Paso and West Texas.

In addition, the Center serves as the West Texas Regional Office of Preservation Texas, offering local historic preservation resources led by West Texas Program Officer Victor Hurtado. We’re excited to launch several exciting initiatives, including guided historical tours of downtown El Paso and hands-on preservation training workshops—coming soon!
