Buckhorn Saloon and Museum

Located in the heart of San Antonio, 2 blocks from the Alamo and 1 block from the Riverwalk, it was easy to get the tour itinerary back on track after our riverboat ride. The rain was still holding off but at least we’d be inside if the skies did decide to open up.

The Buckhorn Saloon and Texas Ranger Museum is a taste of the Old West. The walls are covered with stuffed animal heads. If you are a fan of taxidermy you will love this place.

As you enter the museum you’ll come face to face with a long horn steer.

Other preserved animals follow.

The Texas ranger museum is interesting but I really hoped Chuck Norris would show up to give a tour.  (Walker, Texas Ranger)

One of the most interesting exhibits in my opinion was the map of Texas with all the different Texas Ranger Badges.

But by then I was surprised to discover that I was getting pretty tired  so after exploring the museum a bit I wandered back to the saloon to relax until the tour was ready to move on to the next stop.
