About Fredericksburg

Fredericksburg is the county seat of Gillespie County and one of the signature towns of the Texas Hill Country. Its German heritage, historic district, and Main Street make it a major destination, but the town still has a working local side with schools, churches, ranch-country ties, and county services. Fredericksburg Independent School District serves the city. Between wineries, stone buildings, peach stands, and nearby Enchanted Rock, Fredericksburg feels both tourist-facing and deeply rooted in central Texas history.
