Historical Marker Program

One of the primary functions of County Historical Commissions is to research and recommend State Historical Markers for important historical sites.

All historical marker applications for Walker County must be approved by and made through the Walker Counter Historical Commission. The Texas Historical Commission will not accept applications directly from the public. There is an application fee of $100.

Please note that historical markers are generally funded by the applicant. The Texas Historical Commission has limited funds from marker application fees for special subjects of interest to the Commission. Costs of markers range from $750 to $1500.

If you are interested in making application for a historical marker, please visit the Texas Historical Commission marker application page.
