Park

In the year 2000, the two-plus acres now known as Heritage Park was deeded from the Lakeway Historical Society, Inc. to the City of Lakeway with the provision that the land may be used, developed, or improved to:

• Develop and enhance local pride in Lakeway’s heritage, growth, and development.
• Educate youth and adults about Lakeway’s historical significance to the region.
• Promote Lakeway’s historical sites and legends.
• Be a repository for the official and historical records regarding the geographical area of Lakeway.
• Further the collection, preservation, storage, and display of Lakeway historical items.

Heritage Park is open to the public all year. The Heritage Center building is open to the public from January through November on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. excluding holidays. The Center is open by appointment only during the month of December. Contact the Heritage Center Archivist at (512) 608-9533, or by email for additional information.
