Visit a historically unique location that is known as one of the most beautiful buildings in San Antonio, the Spanish Governor's Palace. This National Historic Landmark represents the last visual remnants of the Presidio San Antonio de Béjar. It was the original residence and working office for the captains of the military garrison from 1722 until the early 1800s. Learn about Texas's earliest history under Spanish rule. Tour the rooms furnished with Spanish Colonial period pieces and be delighted with the beautifully landscaped gardens in the courtyard.
When you visit the Texas Air Museum at Stinson Field you will learn about the famous “Flying Stinson Family” and find out why San Antonio is considered to be the birthplace of American military aviation. The museum represents vintage aircrafts centered around World War II, the Pacific and European theaters of that conflict, and covers in detail the early period and “golden-age” of aviation. Be sure to check out their gift shop containing toys, models, and more.
Artistic passion flows throughout the City of San Antonio Department of Arts & Culture, where they strive to enrich the quality of life by creating art programming and helping people experience art. Being a leader in arts & culture, they manage two free art galleries, welcome film productions, and provide grants to individual arts and nonprofit organizations so they can continue to provide entertainment and education.
