Groom

About This Stop

Groom is famous for the Leaning Water Tower, a deliberately tilted water tower that serves as a quirky roadside attraction and advertising gimmick. The town also features the massive Cross of Our Lord Jesus Christ, a 190-foot cross visible for miles across the flat Panhandle landscape. These distinctive landmarks make Groom impossible to miss for Route 66 travelers. The town's truck stops and cafes continue to serve modern road-trippers crossing the Texas plains.
