Galveston Island State Park, in Galveston County, is in the City of Galveston
on the west end of Galveston Island. It is a 2,013.1-acre site that was acquired
in 1969 from private owners under the State Parks Bond Program and was opened in
1975.
History: Galveston Island is believed to be approximately 5000 years old and has
had an interesting history during the past 500 years. It is generally believed
Cabeza de Vaca and his crew were shipwrecked here in 1520 and eventually made
their way from the island to colonies in Mexico. The LaFitte brothers, fleeing
the prosecution of pirates in the United States, established a government here
in 1817, with visions of creating a "Manhattan on the Gulf." Commerce
did thrive here, but major storms in 1867, 1871, 1875, and 1886 greatly slowed
progress. The great storm of 1900 devastated the island, killing 5000 to 10,000
people, and prompted the construction of the seawall which protects the northern
half of the island.
