Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame opened its doors in 2001. The building housing Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame is one of the horse and mule barns of the Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District. Originally built in 1888, these barns housed over 3,000 horses and mules. The original wooden barns that stood in this location were lost March 14, 1911 when a spark from a passing train ignited a fire. They were rebuilt and completed in March 1912 and considered the first "fire proof" barns. The bricks, columns, metal doors, cat-walks, and cinder blocks seen here are all original architecture of yes-ter-year.
