Fredericksburg is known for its rich German heritage, wineries, and beautiful countryside. Here are activities you can enjoy and some of our favorite things to do in Fredericksburg, Texas during a weekend getaway in the Hill Country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fredericksburg was founded in 1846 by German immigrants who sought to establish a new life in Texas. The town was named after Prince Frederick of Prussia and the German influence is still evident in the town’s architecture, traditions, and festivals. German-style Fachwerk architecture can be seen in many of the buildings, and there is a strong sense of German cultural pride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We love visiting Fredericksburg in Spring when the Texas wildflowers are in bloom- the vineyards are sprouting with bright chartreuse leaves, the sky is blue and the air is crisp. Waking up to the sound of birds while a basket of breakfast was waiting outside the cottage door was one of my favorite things this Spring!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
