Audie Murphy American Cotton Museum

The Audie Murphy American Cotton Museum is a museum in Greenville dedicated to cotton production and military history. It displays equipment, tools, and documents that explain how cotton was grown, processed, and traded in the region.

The museum was founded to preserve the history of Greenville's cotton industry, which experienced rapid growth in the late 1800s and early 1900s. The town was an important center for processing and trading cotton during that era.

The museum honors the town's deep connection to cotton production through exhibits that show how this industry shaped local life and economy. Visitors can see how cotton was woven into the daily work and commerce of the community.

The museum is located near Interstate 30 and is easy to reach by car, with ample parking on site. It is helpful to check ahead about opening days, as visitor capacity may be limited during certain times.

The grounds feature an old residence from the 1800s that is among the oldest surviving buildings in the town. This house shows how affluent families lived during the height of the cotton era.
