Historic Downtown Fredericksburg
Highlight • Historical Site
Today a good 10,000 people live here and German traces can be seen everywhere.
For example, the street signs on Main Street are also titled Hauptstrasse.
The small suburb of Luckenbach is also worth visiting. Here you can listen to country sounds in a western-romantic atmosphere with a Texan Kölsch beer.

Vereins Kirche Museum
Highlight • Historical Site
The museum narrates the history of the two Vereins Kirche buildings, starting with the arrival of the first German settlers in Texas and extending to modern-day Fredericksburg. The original Vereins Kirche, which served as a church, school, and community meeting place, stood in the middle of Main Street from 1847 until its demolition in 1897. The current replica, completed in 1935 through a collaboration between the Gillespie County Historical Society and the Works Progress Administration (WPA), now preserves this rich heritage.
