The Lyndon Baines Johnson Museum of San Marcos is a commemorative institution that highlights the influential role played by LBJ during his college years and as a school teacher, which ultimately shaped his groundbreaking Great Society legislation as the 36th president of the United States.
President Johnson's time at Southwest Texas State Teachers College, now known as Texas State University, from 1927-1930, fostered his political acumen and deepened his commitment to civil rights, education, and poverty eradication. The museum invites visitors to explore the exhibits and discover the enduring impact of his legislative achievements on our society today.
