Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park (LBJ Ranch)
LBJ Ranch
President Johnson's ranch, known as the “Texas White House.” You can self-drive to his birthplace, the family cemetery and the presidential aircraft.
Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park has two parts: the Johnson ranch (LBJ Ranch) near Stonewall, and the boyhood home and family homestead in Johnson City. At the ranch, you can drive the loop road with a free permit and visit the reconstructed house where the president was born, the family cemetery, the hangar for the presidential plane Air Force Half One, and the main house of the “Texas White House,” which requires a paid guided tour to enter. Across the road, the state park's Sauer-Beckmann Living History Farm demonstrates German farm life in the 1900s. The ranch is about 25 minutes' drive from Fredericksburg, and tour spots are limited.
Opening hours
About 9:00 am–5:00 pm (Texas White House tours require a ticket)
