About Us
The mission of the Audie Murphy/American Cotton Museum is to educate the public and to preserve the history of Hunt County, Texas. Of particular emphasis is the impact of the cotton industry and the historical significance of our military heroes, especially Audie Murphy.

The Military Hall of Heroes, covers approximately 3,700 sq. ft. Walk through a WWI trench and meander through the armory of antique guns on display. Stroll among the extensive exhibits on WWII and learn about the regional and national heroes that came from our very own Texas county like Audie Murphy, Claire Chennault and others.
Cotton Exhibits

Greenville was home to the world’s largest inland cotton compress, which set a world record both in 1911 and 1912. Imagine in just one 10 hour work day being able to compress 2,073 bales of cotton! The engine of the compress is on display at the Museum.
