Memorial Room

The Memorial Room was the last addition to the museum. Its exhibits consist of many different topics with items from WWI and WWII, Civilian Conservation Corps, old christening dresses, the Building Bridges display - items from students who attended Bastrop High School many years ago, and tea sets which belonged to families who settled in Bastrop. Donations to this room were made by many people from the town of Bastrop.
