The birthplace of philanthropist and art patron Ima Hogg, this Texas Main Street city was founded in 1873. The Select Theater, believed to be the longest continuously operating theater in Texas, features both movies and live productions. Mineola’s 1950s depot is still used by Amtrak passengers and is reminiscent of this city’s railroad town beginnings. Festivals include Main Street Wine Fest, Bigfoot Meets NatureFest, Mays Days, MLOTA’s Art Festival and Quilt Show, Ironhorse and Holiday of Lights.
