Texas Military Forces Museum Scavenger Hunt

The Texas Military Forces Museum is located at Camp Mabry in Austin and tells the story of Texas military history from the early militia and Texas Revolution through to modern service. The museum includes indoor galleries, historic artifacts, uniforms, dioramas, military vehicles, weapons, and outdoor exhibits with tanks, artillery, aircraft, helicopters, and other equipment. Admission is free, and the museum is open to the public with visitor access through Camp Mabry.

With a cityHUNT scavenger hunt, your team explores the museum in a more exciting and interactive way. Our scavenger hunt takes you on a clear route around the entire museum, where you will learn, explore, and solve exhibit-based clues. Along the hunt, you capture photos and short videos of the challenges you’re tasked with. 

Some of the exhibits you will visit and solve clues about include:

  • Indoor military history galleries
  • Texas Revolution and Republic of Texas exhibits
  • Civil War and 19th-century Texas military displays
  • World War I and World War II exhibits
  • 36th Infantry Division displays
  • Hall of Honor
  • Outdoor tanks and artillery exhibits
  • Aircraft, helicopters, trucks, and military vehicles
  • and more!

How It Works

To plan the perfect Texas Military Forces Museum scavenger hunt for your group, we start by learning your goals, date, and group size. Then we map a route through the museum galleries and outdoor exhibits that fits your timing and interests. On event day, you use our app to navigate, submit entries, and watch live scores. We conclude the scavenger hunt by reviewing how each team performed and announcing the winner.

Field Trip to the Texas Military Forces Museum

Scavenger Hunt for Schools in Austin, TX

The Texas Military Forces Museum is the perfect field trip for teaching students about the history of the Texas and the United States militaries. Teams will observe artifacts, study vehicles, read exhibit text, and connect what they find to Texas history, U.S. history, civics, and military service. We can customize scavenger hunts to require students to record names, dates, features, and other facts for learning purposes. Photos and short video challenges make it easy to review what students found once you return to class.

Family Museum Day With a Twist
