San Felipe de Austin State Historic Site, Texas State Historic Site in San Felipe, United States.
The site features a comprehensive museum with exhibits, interpretive trails, a bronze statue of Stephen F. Austin, and a replica log cabin.
Stephen F. Austin established this colonial settlement in 1823, bringing 297 families known as the Old Three Hundred under Mexican government authorization.
The museum displays an 1830s printing press, Stephen F. Austin's field desk, and numerous artifacts discovered during archaeological research.
The historic site operates Wednesday through Sunday from 9 AM to 5 PM, with admission fees of $10 for adults and reduced rates for seniors.
During the Texas Revolution in 1836, residents deliberately burned the entire town to prevent Mexican forces from capturing valuable resources.
