Nicknamed the “Forty Acres” after the size of the university’s original 1883 footprint, The University of Texas at Austin’s main campus is a 431-acre urban oasis in the heart of the capital city of Texas. Campus is home to landmarks like the Tower at the heart of campus or the Perry-Castañeda Library with over 70 miles of book stacks. Discover the creativity of the Blanton Museum of Art and the exterior installation from Ellsworth Kelly, "Austin."
