By  | 

 

During his presidency, Lyndon B. Johnson spent approximately 25% of his time at the “Texas White House”. The Texas White House officially opened to the public August 27, 2008. Tours run approximately 30 minutes in length and give great insight to the life of the Johnson Family. First floor tours of the home are conducted daily; ages 17 and under are free, ages 18 and up have an admission price of $3.00. You will see the President’s office, the living room, the dining room, kitchen, and bedrooms of President Johnson and Lady Bird Johnson.  The bedroom of President Johnson is exactly as it was the day of his death on January 25, 1973.  In every room on the first floor of the estate you will find at least one telephone. Each room has a television set in it, except for the dining room, as President Johnson believed in keeping very informed about the happenings of the country.  Outside the Texas White House is also a car museum and an airplane hangar for your viewing.
