Discover the County
Navarro County
Navarro County was formed from Robertson County in 1846 and named for José Antonio Navarro, a Tejano leader and signer of the Texas Declaration of Independence. Corsicana became the county seat. The county’s name provides one connection to the state’s political origins, while museums offer different ways to consider history. At Navarro College, the Pearce Museum includes Civil War material, western art and a collection concerning hunter-gatherers of the Blackland Prairie, placing several historical perspectives within a single local institution.
The Pearce Museum on Navarro College’s Corsicana campus offers a focused stop for visitors interested in art and history. Its collections address different subjects, so review the museum’s own information when deciding how to spend your time. A museum visit can anchor a day in Corsicana, leaving room for other destinations within the county seat. When traveling farther across the county, choose specific places and verify their current arrangements separately rather than assuming shared opening schedules.
