Magoffin Home - El Paso, Texas

A striking adobe structure, Magoffin Home State Historic Site explores the stories of a multicultural family who actively participated in U.S. expansion and settlement, military service, trade on the Santa Fe–Chihuahua Trail, Civil War turmoil and U.S.–Mexico relations. The 1875 home is a prime example of Territorial style architecture. http://www.thc.texas.gov/historic-sites/magoffin-home-state-historic-site
