Log Cabin Village

Log Cabin Village is a museum with six restored buildings from the 1800s, including homes, a schoolhouse, and a blacksmith shop set across historical grounds. The buildings were gathered from different parts of Texas and arranged together to show what settler life looked like.

The museum opened in 1966 after Fort Worth acquired several authentic log cabins from northern and central Texas dating to the 1850s. These buildings were preserved and brought together in one place to document the region's settler past.

Costumed interpreters demonstrate traditional crafts like blacksmithing and weaving as visitors walk through the grounds. You can watch how people actually worked and lived in those times.

The site is best explored on foot as you move between buildings and outdoor areas. Pathways connect the structures, but the grounds are open and can get muddy depending on the weather.

The museum operates a working water-powered gristmill where you can watch the traditional grinding process that settlers used. This mill shows the practical technology that made daily life possible.
