In 1903 the Republic of Texas Museum was housed in one room of the State Capitol building in Austin, TX. The collection of Republic-era artifacts grew rapidly and more space was required. Next, the museum occupied the 2nd floor of the old Land Office building until 1989 when restoration of the building began. Four years later the Daughters of the Republic of Texas purchased a building to house the Museum and the organization's headquarters.
