Nestled in the heart of downtown Longview, the Gregg County Historical Museum is a treasured gem preserving the rich heritage of our region. Housed in the historic Everett Building—one of the few pre-1930 structures still standing in the area—our museum is both a cultural institution and a community cornerstone.

The building itself is our most prized artifact, showcasing original inlaid tile floors and a stunning pressed tin ceiling adorned with cherubs. Designed by Charles A. Paramore of Museum Arts in Dallas, the museum’s exhibit areas bring Gregg County’s story to life through beautifully curated antiques, historic photographs, and immersive themed settings. From clever layouts to thoughtful traffic flow, every detail has been meticulously crafted to transform history into a magical, walk-through experience.

Come explore the legacy of Gregg County and discover why the museum is woven so deeply into the fabric of our community.
