Make Your Day

Take a step back into the mid-1800s with the San Antonio Fire Museum, where visitors can check out the antique fire trucks, fire-fighting equipment, historical artifacts, beautifully archived documents, and photos. On the kid tours, your kiddos can dress up in authentic replicas of firefighters' turnout gear and climb up on a 1953 International fire truck. They can also take a seat in the small theater and watch short videos on the history of firefighters and how they train today.

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.
