About this place
What is Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park?
Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park is a United States National Historical Park in central Texas about 50 miles (80 km) west of Austin in the Texas Hill Country. The park protects the birthplace, home, ranch, and grave of Lyndon B. Johnson, 36th president of the United States. During Johnson's administration, the LBJ Ranch was known as the Texas White House because the President spent approximately 20% of his time in office there and was equipped with all the communication technology so Johnson can carry out his duties. Johnson donated the ranch in his will to the public to form the park, with the provision that it "remain a working ranch and not become a sterile relic of the past". Following Lyndon's death, it was one of a number of residences used by former First Lady Lady Bird Johnson prior to her death in 2007.
