Welcome to The History Center. Located in Diboll, Angelina County, Texas, deep in the heart of the beautiful East Texas pineywoods, we are a public history and archives center that collects, preserves, and makes available the history of our region for the educational use and benefit of present and future generations.

Providing research opportunities is the core of our mission, and our holdings include manuscripts, business and local government records, maps, newspapers, oral histories, books, and more than 250,000 photographs. We also have exciting exhibits both inside and out that help interpret the Center’s growing collections as well as the area’s rich cultural and natural history.

We hope you find this online version of The History Center useful, but we also encourage you to visit us in person.
