It's a pretty awesome place. You might not think it sounds interesting, but it really is. Good place to take your kids and learn some new things you never thought you'd know.
This is an amazing museum! We had no idea it was here and it is packed full of things to see. It shows endless examples of windmills from early 1900s models to current designs. Very affordable entrance fees and an afternoon of walking at least! Check out the millstone room for sure.
Growing up in West Texas windmills are associated with one thing: water. But this museum shows the many other uses of harnessing the wind for mechanical/kinetic energy. There are 2 levels which allows you to get close to the upper "business" end of the windmills. I was pleasantly surprised at the depth and variety of their collection as well as the manner in which it is displayed.
Fun and educational stop on a long road trip. Kids raced several model trains that run all around the warehouse. Miniture town and large display of dollhouses thrilled our girls. Massive mural was gorgeous and we loved getting up close to the huge windmills.
Wow! We had a Toyota event at the American Wind Power Center and I didn't know what to expect. I was blown (ha ha) away and loved it. The main exhibition hall is impressive and the mural in the adjacent space is a sight to behold. Come to Lubbock, visit and you will really enjoy a special treat. Wind power is fascinating and has a deep history in West Texas. Loved it and taking my family there in the next few weeks.
