Red Men Museum and Library, Historical reference museum and research library in Waco, United States

The Red Men Museum and Library is a research center in Waco that houses over 4,500 volumes focused on Texas history, Civil War records, and World War II documentation. The collection provides visitors access to extensive historical materials spanning several major periods of American history.

The museum was established in 1991 when Robert E. Davis donated his collection of Red Men memorabilia and historical artifacts to the organization. This donation formed the foundation for the research center and its extensive holdings.

The building reflects Thomas Jefferson's Monticello design, and visitors can see collections linked to Native American leaders like Geronimo and Cochise. These architectural choices and displayed artifacts show how the space honors these historical figures.

The museum sits near the Waco Independent School District football stadium and sports complex. The brick building includes a hall and a commercial kitchen used for events, so check ahead whether a function limits access to the exhibits.

The archive is non-circulating but open to the public for study, and alongside Red Men documents it holds the complete Warren Commission report and the Nuremberg War Criminal Trial reports. Robert E. Davis, former national secretary of the order, bought much of the material at auction before willing it to the organization.
