Goodman Museum
The 1859 Goodman-LeGrand House & Museum has been a Texas Historic Landmark since 1964, and it was the first property in Smith County to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2010, it was designated a Historic Site by the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR). With the latest renovations and continued maintenance and care by the City of Tyler and the Tyler Parks & Recreation Department, the Goodman estate will surely stand as a showplace for many years to come.
The Goodman-LeGrand Museum is open for walk-ins anytime during our normal hours of operation. It is a free attraction. However, a $2 donation per person is suggested. Tour groups (of 10 or more), photographic sessions, meetings, weddings and other functions must be scheduled in advance. The 1859 Goodman-LeGrand House & Museum is located in the 9-acre LeGrand Park & Gardens at 624 North Broadway, Tyler, Texas 75702, just north of the downtown Tyler square. Please call (903) 531-1286 for more information, including museum and park rental fees, details on upcoming special events, volunteer opportunities, and to schedule a guided tour or function.
Goodman Museum Grounds
The Goodman Museum grounds are also known as LeGrand Park. The well manicured grounds cover almost an entire city block. In addition to lush green lawns, there are many large shade trees and beautiful flowers, including azaleas and roses. Benches provide visitors a place to rest and enjoy the beautiful setting.
