Maintaining and restoring the Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District is the primary responsibility of the local community. The district is a testament to Texas's rich heritage and the livestock industry's important role in shaping its history. From the original brick walkways to the wooden corrals, every inch of the Stockyards tells a story, and visitors can't help but be transported back in time by its authentic atmosphere. For anyone interested in experiencing the true essence of the West, the Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District is a must-visit destination.
The Modern Art Museum has an impressive modern and contemporary art collection focusing on post-World War II pieces. It is considered one of the most notable collections in the United States. Enjoy the works by artists such as Anselm Kiefer, Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollock, Gerhard Richter, Andres Serrano, Cindy Sherman, and Andy Warhol. You're sure to find something that catches your eye. The museum periodically rotates exhibits to showcase all 2,600 pieces in its collection. One unique feature of the museum is that its building was designed to use natural light in the 53,000 square feet of gallery space.
