Visiting the Fort Bend Museum

Fort Bend County's history is a rich and varied tapestry. From Stephen F. Austin's first colony in 1822 to the present day, we think Fort Bend County's history is fascinating and worth sharing. 
  • Visit the Museum Gallery to get an overview of life along the bend of the Brazos River.
  • Take a house tour of the Long-Smith Cottage. Built in 1855, the cottage is one of the oldest buildings in Richmond and was originally placed on land owned by Jane Long, the "Mother of Texas."
  • Tour the 1883 historic Moore Mansion, home to Congressman John. M. and Lottie Dyer Moore. Four generations of the Moore family lived in the home, which was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.
