Come to see what Huntsville Antique Show and Sale is all about.
This is an ongoing show that is held every Sept. except last year due to Hurricane Ike coming through and the FEMA taking over the Walker County Fairgrounds as their operating site.


Weather does not matter as it is held in an air conditioned building with plenty of on site parking, food, and good restrooms.

While here in town check out the 6 antiques stores, many great original restaurants and other sites.
There are several museums here, one being Sam Houston Museum with two of Houston's homes in the grounds.

There are 5 other antiques shops here on the historical courthouse square as well as Farmhouse Sweets and Eats which is a soda fountain type cafe serving daily specials as well as the best briskit tacos, chicken noodle soup like you have never had before, and wonderful chicken salads. They serve ice cream, banana splits, sodas, and candies made on location. As for eating places, there is also the Texan, a 1930's cafe with Texas food favorites such as pepper fried steak, chicken fried steak and a huge hamburger. See picture of Texan Restaurant at end of blog. We have two other restaurants around the Square which are Cloud Nine which is a coffee shop and health food store as well as serving up some great healthy sandwiches and soups, and The Stardust with a full restaurant and club.
Their specialities include great hamburgers and tavern foods as well.

A restored theater has community plays and classic movies shown as well as our own version of American idol every year.
There is lots going on here. It's called the Old Town Theatre.

There are two museum houses available for tours, the Gibbs Powell House from the 1850's and Wynne House from 1880's.

Of course, there is in addition to the Square other sights in town which include the Veteran's Museum, Sam Houston Statue, Prison Museum as well as Sam Houston Museum.
Sam Houston is buried here in Huntsville and you can tour his gravesite as well as two Houston homes at the Sam Houston Musuem grounds. Walk around and see places where he sat and whittled around the Square.
There is camping and water sports at the State Park and Lake Livingston nearby.

Come to see what we have and make it a day or weekend.

Also, here on the Square is a Log Cabin with information and the Statue Gift Shop also offers information daily.
