Monahans Museums

The Million Barrel Museum combines an old Shell Oil Company tank and a historic home know as the Holman House. The tank was built by the Shell Oil Company in 1928 to hold barrels during the oil boom. The house was originally a hotel and has been refurnished and redecorated to reflect the turn of the 19th century. Many items collected from early oil drilling, farming and everyday living have been collected and displayed at the museum.
