Description
Nacogdoches
University
Building
in
1890
Nacogdoches
University
was
chartered
in
1845
with its
first
home
being
the "
Red
House
" in
downtown
Nacogdoches
. In
1858
, a
permanent
brick
building
was
erected
on
Washington
Square
, a
few
blocks
away
.
Except
for
brief
periods
the
university
remained
in
operation
until
1895
.
During
the
Civil
War
, the
buildings
were
used
for a
hospital
and
quarters
for
Confederate
Soldiers
, and
during
Reconstruction
the
buildings
served
as
headquarters
for a
Federal
regiment
.
When
the
original
charter
expired
in
1870
,
management
of the
university
first
was
under
the
control
of the
Catholic
Church
and
later
of
Milam
Lodge
. From
1887
to
1889
the
property
was
leased
to
Keachi
College
and
called
by that
name
but
after
1889
the
name
Nacogdoches
University
was
resumed
. In
1895
,
it
was
apparent
that
instruction
could
no
longer
be
maintained
on the
university
level
, and in
1904
the
property
was
deeded
to the
Nacogdoches
Independent
School
District
. The
original
brick
building
has
undergone
several
restorations
and
is
now
used
as a
museum
.
