Creation Evidence Museum

The Creation Evidence Museum is a museum in Glen Rose, Texas, displaying a collection of geological samples and replicas of footprints from the Paluxy River region, interpreted through a creationist lens. The exhibition space includes several rooms with display cases, wall panels, and a special laboratory for researching prehistoric atmospheric conditions.

Carl Baugh founded the museum in 1984 after several years of field research along the Paluxy River, where he documented tracks in limestone he interpreted as simultaneous human and dinosaur presence. The facility evolved from a small field camp into a permanent building with exhibition rooms and research areas.

The facility's name reflects its focus on physical evidence supporting a young Earth view, while exhibition halls guide visitors through geological layers interpreted from a creationist standpoint. On lecture evenings, people from the surrounding area gather to hear discussions about biblical timelines and fossil discoveries.

The museum opens Wednesday through Saturday between 10 AM and 4 PM, with admission for adults and children five years and older set at 10 dollars. Visitors should plan about one to two hours for walking through the exhibition rooms and viewing the displays.

A hyperbaric biosphere chamber inside the museum attempts to replicate prehistoric atmospheric conditions with elevated oxygen and air pressure to test plant and animal growth. This experimental setup tries to simulate conditions that, according to creationist theory, existed before the biblical flood.
