Brown County Museum of History
Forts Trail Region
In the early 1900s, cotton was king, and Brownwood was the major cotton-buying center west of Fort Worth. The economy burgeoned in the 1920s during an oil boom and again during World War II with the construction of Camp Bowie, a vast military training installation. The Brown County Museum of History interprets these and other aspects of local history in a fortress-like Romanesque Revival jail built in 1902.
