Trails of Enchantment

The Star is Home

Clip: Season 2023 Episode 1 | 7m 14s

The Star is one of El Paso's most iconic symbol.

The electric star on the Franklin Mountains has been El Paso’s pride and joy since 1940 and has been lighting across the borderland ever since. Community members and visitors who pass by see the city's iconic symbol shine bright at sunset but many do not know how it came to be. We take a look into its history and how the city still is able to keep it shining for the last 83 years.
