The Carnegie family contributed to a series of libraries which were built around the country. This particular one was built in 1914. The building is now the home of the Palestine Chamber of Commerce. There are many historic photographs on display including a panoramic view of the old railroad station and the businesses along the tracks.
This home is one of the oldest in Palestine. The original owner, Col. Howard and his descendants lived in the house until it was sold to the City in 1964. Built in 1851 it has been fully restored and beautifully furnished and has been placed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is supposed to be one of the finest examples of Greek Revival architecture in Texas.
The Museum is open for tours and social functions by appointment only.
The Masonic Lodge or Temple is one of the oldest organisations in Anderson County and was unofficially established in 1846. For the first two years, meetings were held in members homes until the lodge was built in 1848. In 1859 the masons built a 2 story structure to provide a school for boys with a meeting hall on the 2nd floor. They later constructed a separate schoolhouse for girls in 1852.
This is the 3rd lodge which has 3 floors. The first floor was split into 3 separate stores for rental to local merchants. The second floor was styled as the city's first Opera House and the third floor was the meeting rooms for the lodge.
