Grace History Museum

Grace History Museum

The Grace History Museum features an authentic recreation of a 1940s boot shop, and an array of restored period rooms, representative of life in Abilene from 1910-1948. Also in the History Museum, are historical documents, artifacts, photographs and an exhibit of a hotel room replicating those in the Hotel Grace when it was built. The exhibits also demonstrate how 20th century urbanization, modernization and world events shaped the lives of individuals as well as the community as a whole.
