Annie Riggs Memorial Museum

I took my two young grandsons to see the museum. I wasn't sure what to expect. The curator, Ross, was absolutely awesome. He explained the history of the house, and the boys loved him. They were so excited to go through all the rooms. Loved being able to touch some of the artifacts. The whole time we were there, it was just perfect.

Great place to celebrate your weeding. Fantastic place to learn about the history of Ann Riggs

We were welcomed as soon as we walked in the door and was told some of the history. We enjoyed going through each room and looking at the historical information regarding Annie Riggs, one tough women pioneer!!
Thank you for the experience.

My husband and I toured the Annie Riggs Museum. She was the wife of my 8th cousin (four times removed), Barney Riggs. Barney was both a gunslinger and a deputy, working both sides of the law, not uncommon in the Wild West.
The museum was wonderful and had the sweetest little doggy watching over it (she stole my heart).

Very nice collection. A few of the rooms are very dusty/musty and some might struggle to breathe in those rooms.

The collections are laid out nicely and the kitchen makes me wish I had the space to collect such antiques. My great-grandmother still used some of those types of items when I was little, so sweetly nostalgic.

We love Ft. Stockton and the people we meet here. ❤

A museum in which the objects of historical, cultural, artistic, and scientific interest are kept for the public display. Vivid details everything comes to life.Loved it ❤A must see!!

Historic site well maintained. Many rooms to see that contain tools, clothing, and photographs from the period time that Annie Riggs lived. Very informative 10 minute video in room to right as you come in

Ross is a wealth of knowledge.
Great museum with some hands on exhibits.
Our daughters enjoyed typing on the antique typewriters. We learned a lot about the history of Fort Stockton and the West.

Really beautiful hotel in manicured setting. Blooming desert willows and dusty footprints by the porch. We sat a while to enjoy the breeze. Inside, $5 fee, nice women working. Lots of antique items. Kitchen stuff was fascinating. Spend an hour or two, learn about Ft. Stockton in Pioneer times.

Wonderful museum. The care taker was great to visit with. Glad we put this on our stop while visiting area. Thank you for the visit.

This was a great stop while traveling. Was met by a very informative man that gave a short and interesting history lesson. We enjoyed learning the local history

Great small museum showcasing local history. Staff is friendly, helpful and informative.

The summer concerts were outstanding. The food was excellent as well as the drinks. My grandsons love to dance so it was child friendly. Just great. I am looking forward to the next event.

I called them with a donation and they were very excited to receive it nice nice people

Very interesting museum with lots of stories about the colorful characters who helped establish Fort Stockton. Nicely arranged and very well preserved building and contents. Very impressed- especially considering it was arranged and maintained by a small town historical society. Well done and well worth the $3 admission.

Love this town. I hear it’s the up and coming?

What a great piece of City History! Wonderful exhibits showcasing the town's history and resident's life. We did the entire driving tour and learned a lot about life in the old west.

This was a pretty cool little museum. It was formerly a hotel among many other things. The owner and proprietor who ran it for many years I have an Anne Riggs was quite a person. As you go from room to room you'll learn a whole lot about the history of the area, how the trains came where Oil was discovered who started the town and it's important in Texas history. All that from one little museum - that's really a mouthful. Nice place, and the t-shirts are pretty nice as well! I definitely recommend it as long as you're in Fort Stockton you may as well go here in addition to wherever else you're going.

Wow!! What an interesting museum and what a lady she was! The rooms are very nice decorated, you get a good impression of her life and the lady at the reception was very kind and helpfull!! Really worth visiting. You can also start the historic city walk from here!!

A definite must stop in Fort Stockton. Started at the visitor center and did the walking tour. If you don’t have time to spend doing everything the museum is the best option. You learn a lot of the history that was shown on the walking tour. Reasonably priced at $3 per adult.

Fantastic presentation and exhibits depicting local history and life. Excellent and knowledgeable staff especially Ross the Director. Only sorry we do not live locally to be able to attend the Thursday evening events. We'll worth a visit!!
