History:

Fredericksburg was founded in 1846 by German immigrants. Today, the historic town boasts a population of 10,530 residents and has spectacular views of the Texas Hill Country. Fredericksburg retained much of its German history. Many of the older buildings have kept their original German styles. In fact, the town’s original inhabitants refused to speak English and founded a new dialect called “Texas German”. The history of Fredericksburg is rich. The town has many exciting places to stay and many more things to do.

History buffs will enjoy a day at one of the town’s historical sites, including Fort Martin Scott, Pioneer Museum Complex or they can visit the nearby Lyndon B. Johnson State Park and Historic Site.
