Facts

November 17, 2053 – The Texas Historical Commission began in 1953 as the Texas State Historical Survey Committee, formed by the legislature to oversee state historical programs. Three years later, in 1956, county historical survey committees were created in Texas to carry out preservation work at the local level.  For more information on the Texas Historical Commission, please click here.
