Opera House

Built in 1907 by Albert W. Johnson, it has been called the "fanciest" showplace between Fort Worth and El Paso. Once hosted musical and dramatic productions, public and civic activities, silent and talking movies, and even wrestling and bare-fist fighting events until the 1930s. Today, it is used for stage productions and a country/western musical, usually the third Saturday of the month. On north side of square. 325/823-3259.
