MKT Depot Museum
Katy, Texas

General, History

The MKT Depot was built in 1898 and enlarged in 1919. The Katy Heritage Society was formed in 1979 to save the depot from being destroyed; and had continued it's mission to preserve local history since that time. The Depot has been restored as a working MKT Depot. Colors were carefully researched and the building looks much like it did while in the early years of service. The Museum includes exhibits of local and MKT history and a freight room furnished as if busy around the turn of the century. The City of Katy operates a visitors center out of the depot, information about the Katy area and the Katy Heritage Society is avialable.
