The Wheeler Historical Museum in Wheeler, Texas is dedicated to preserving the rich history of Wheeler County. With a passionate museum board, they showcase the personal artifacts of Captain Alan L. Bean, the fourth man to walk on the moon, including a remarkable 9-foot bronze statue of him in his space suit. As a Commemorative Partner for the 50th Anniversary of the Vietnam War and the 100th Anniversary of World War I, the museum also highlights the brave pioneers who faced various challenges in their pursuit of a better life, from Indian raids to the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression.

Visitors can step back in time and explore exhibits on the Red River War of 1874-1875, which sheds light on the clash of cultures between Native Americans and the U.S. Army. Additionally, the museum showcases the artistic talents of Alan Bean, who is not only an astronaut and moonwalker but also an accomplished artist, with numerous pieces of his fine art prints on display. From educational exhibits to special events like the Annual Quilts of Valor Display, the Wheeler Historical Museum offers a fascinating journey through history for all who visit.
