Stepping back in time. - This was wonderful, stepping back in time! The mansion is perfectly preserved, and so very interesting to visit. Defiantly a very peaceful few hours for adults, not much for children, however the lower floors house a children's museum, which was not open the day we visited.

Glad I finally visited! - I have always wanted to visit the Moody Mansion, and on this trip to Galveston, I finally did. It is a self-guided tour that provides the family's history. It is worth your time if you like history and beautiful, old, restored mansions.
