Fredericksburg & Texas Hill Country

Fredericksburg was founded in 1846 by German immigrants who brought their building traditions, their brewing culture, and their agricultural sensibility to the Texas Hill Country. A century and a half later, it's become the center of Texas Hill Country wine tourism — with more than 100 wineries and tasting rooms in the surrounding Hill Country — while the town's limestone Main Street and German colonial architecture remain largely intact.
