Over 200 interactive exhibits that kids through adults will enjoy, in-depth historical displays adults will find fascinating, live animals and science exhibits everyone will enjoy, and even a special 5 and under play area that could honestly be its own location and I would still pay for it! A must visit for families if in Lubbock or passing through. Also offer military discount.

We did however have issues with the placement of benches in the museum. When we drank our coffee we sat facing a window that had a huge rectangle in our line of sight. Another bench had a plaque on it to show maybe dedicated or donated to the museum, was in a dimly lit hallway. One final bench, was placed too closely to art. You can sit and relax on it and hit your head on fine art. Other than the coffee and the misplaced benches, this museum is delightful. The updates they've done are beautiful and I love coming to see the new exhibits.

Since I grew up in the Lubbock area, I felt that it was probably necessary for me to finally go and…read morevisit the Buddy Holly Center. I must say I was very disappointed. You're charged $10 to see two very small rooms that consisted of a bedroom set a table, a couple guitars and a motorcycle. There is an art gallery I was told, but it was closed so I'm not able to attest to what is in there. I will say the gift shop is pretty nice and I can see where a lot of people would find some unique things in there, especially if someone likes unique glasses. I was very tempted to get a pair of Buddy Holly glasses. The people were not overly friendly, which is unusual for Lubbock. At least now I can say I've finally been there.

Unrelated to the establishment itself, I met the bassists for Styx while touring the old house nextdoor in which the songs Peggy Sue and That'll Be The Day were written. I would recommend if you love his music, or the music of the people he influenced (to be fair, if you love any music, you love the music of someone influenced by him) but a great experience and I highly recommend.

Behind this is an open air museum of buildings from Texas ranch life in the 1800's. It is varied and fascinating to see how people lived and worked back then. The buildings are spread along a 1 1/2 mile loop and there is a nice paved sidewalk so you can walk (I did!) or you can take the little mini train which has a conductor/tour guide. I would happily return!

If you are just looking for something to do while in Lubbock, it will depend on whether or not it is for you. It is definitely deep on windmills and history. I found it interesting but will say it didn't hold my attention the way I expect it would for some who really are intrigued by how small changes across history really add up. They have a cool gift shop and sell prints by local photographers at the end which definitely have great gift potential!

OVERALL A gem of history in Lubbock, Texas!…read more RATING BREAKDOWN Experience: 4.5 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 5 | Price: 5 PARKING They have a nice paved lot with ample parking. LOCATION/AMBIANCE The American Windmill Museum is located in the northeast part of Lubbock, TX with close access to Interstate 25 and Loop 289. As you approach the museum grounds, you'll see the fenced in area with a slew of outdoor windmills of all generations. The building in which you can schedule a group tour of 6 or more or self-tour is huge... however, it is broken into sections: two windmill areas, model train displays, miniature houses, millstone collection, gift shop, a counter weight display, and plus their event room has an amazing wrap-around mural. LITTLE YELPER'S CLUB My 8 & 9-year-olds loved the "Legacy of the Wind" seek and find. We received a few handouts soon after purchasing our tour tickets. Brochures and the like. One was a list of over 30 items to find on the mural in their special events room. Not only did this entertain them for 20 minutes, but it also was puzzle-like & expanded their vocabulary with words like "privies" & "man witching for water. SERVICE The lady at the ticket counter and the guy in gift shop were personable and helpful. MY FAVORITE PART... The windmills! NOT SO FAVORITE PART... Not knowing until recently about this place. TIPS + Closed Sunday & Monday. + Cash or card is accepted for the entry fee. + As of 12/29/2022, adult tickets were $7.50. Children 5 to 12 years-old were $5. Under 5 free, $6.00 for seniors 60+ and veterans, & $20.00 for a family of 4 (2 adults & 2 children).
