Miss Hattie's Bordello Museum
18 1/2 E. Concho St
San Angelo, Texas
I visited Miss Hattie's bordello museum while in San Angelo last summer and found it fascinating. It's like time has stood still in this place. Located above a jewelry store (formerly a saloon) almost all the furniture is original. One prostitute's diploma is still on the wall of her room! (San Angelo High School, 1919.) Lots of very interesting things there to see. Not sordid at all, but rather sad. No doubt every little town had such a place back in the early 1900s, but most of them have long since been demolished or replaced by some other business. This upstairs bordello is like a time capsule. Cowboys, soldiers and travelers frequented "Miss Hattie's" for more than 50 years. The most famous brothel in West Texas, it was shut down by the Texas Rangers in 1946.
