Texas Prison Museum and Prison Driving Tour by Stephen-KarenConn
Huntsville is home of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. There are 8 prison units in the Huntsville vicinity. A driving tour offers a brief history of the Huntsville Unit, the 1st prison unit of the state of Texas. The driving tour also includes general information on the other units in the area. The driving tour starts at the Texas Prison Museum where a brochure and map may be obtained. It ends at the prison cemetery. One of the more sobering things you may see is "death row", which often makes it's way into the national news media.
