The Witte Museum is San Antonio’s premiere museum of South Texas history, culture, and natural science. Located in Brackenridge Park, on the banks of the San Antonio River, the Witte is conveniently located only minutes from Downtown in a tranquil area of San Antonio and offers a unique setting for any special event. The campus includes two auditoriums, a native plant garden, a courtyard with covered veranda lined by majestic oak trees, and several historic buildings from the Spanish Colonial period to the late 1800’s. The Witte has meeting and event spaces for groups of 10 up to 1,500 people. There are several rental packages available that allow for both indoor and/or outdoor use. The Witte also allows guests to rent the entire museum facility in the evenings for private events.
