Can you imagine a Dallas without cowboys? The Hall of State Plaque on this pole next to the Hall of State commemorates the history of Texas. It was designated a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 1981 by the Texas Historical Commission. The plaque tells the story of Texas and the heroes who shaped the state. The Hall of State itself is a stunning example of Art Deco architecture, and was built for the Texas Centennial Exposition in 1936. The building has always been a repository of the state’s history and artifacts, and the Dallas Historical Society became the stewards in 1938. Today the museum holds over 3 million pieces and serves as a place of cultural significance for Dallas. You might even find yourself in the middle of the Hall of Heroes, a corridor dedicated to six prominent figures in the early shaping of the Republic of Texas. This building is a testament to Texas history and a place that celebrates the state’s heritage.
