A library/museum of the late statesman, Sam Rayburn, who was a congressman for an insane number of years, from 1913 til his death in 1961 (so much for retirement), and that after serving in the Texas congressional chamber. As Speaker of the House and otherwise, he did some interesting things, like facilitate legislation for the creation of Route 66 and also the Civil Rights bills of the 1960s.
The Sam Rayburn House Museum is a historic house museum at 890 West Texas State Highway 56 just outside Bonham, Fannin, Texas. Built in 1916, it was home to Sam Rayburn (1882-1961), a famously effective Speaker of the United States House of Representatives. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1976. Since 1972, it has been operated as a museum and state historic site by the Texas Historical Commission.
