Fort Concho was built just after the Civil War and over half it remains standing today. You'll walk through barracks of both the infantry and the calvary, the stables and the schoolhouse, and many other buildings dating from the 1860s.

Two museums rest within the walls of this landmark. The E.H. Danner Museum of Telephony collects models of telephones from the 1880s to now. Most famously, it preserves an Alexander Graham Bell "Gallows Frame Phone," of which only five exist.

The other museum of the Robert Wood Johnson Museum of Frontier Medicine, which collects artifacts of your typical 19th century hospital on the frontier. Some of these artifacts are very specifically San Angelo.
