Caddo’s museum was the brainchild of Caddo’s Bicentennial Committee (1976). It opened in 1978 and since then it has been entertaining and enlightening visitors from across the country and around the globe. Some are just “passing through” and see the sign on the highway. Others are on a quest to find some bit of information about a mysterious ancestor or lost relative. The charming ladies who volunteer at the museum are always eager to chat with you about Caddo’s history or help you locate family ties.
