Comfort Texas - Why Old Places Matter Tour

The Dinah Zike Academy Building and STEAM Garden were featured in the Comfort Texas Heritage Foundation's "Why Old Places Matter Tour"

"There’s something special about the places that tell our story…

The Why Old Places Matter Tour is coming soon to Comfort, and it’s your chance to experience the beauty, history, and heart of our community up close. History doesn’t always feel like a lesson.

Sometimes, it feels like a walk. A story. A conversation. A place. On the Why Old Places Matter Tour, you don’t just learn history —you experience it, absorb it, and carry it with you… without even realizing you’re being taught.Because the most powerful history lessons aren’t in textbooks —

they’re in the buildings, the streets, the homes, and the stories that shaped us. Come walk the past.

Feel the story. Learn without noticing." - Comfort Heritage Foundation
