Museum structure as a heritage site
The Brenham Heritage Museum is located in what was once the US Post Office for the City of Brenham. The building was constructed between 1914 (when the land was first acquired) and 1916 (when construction was completed). It remained the post office until the mid-1960s, when a new post office was built nearby. The old post office structure became a federal office building. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990, it was added due to its notable Classical Revival architecture. References
