About Texas Forestry Museum
The Texas Forestry Museum features exhibits on the forestry of Lufkin and the East Texas area — a fitting subject for a city built by the timber boom, where the headquarters of all four of Texas's national forests and both of its national grasslands are based. Time a visit with September's Texas State Forest Festival and you get the full flavor of this Deep East Texas county seat.
