The Texas Hill Country

Fredericksburg & Luckenbach

John O. Meusebach founded this German colony in 1846, then rode out the next year and struck a peace treaty with Penateka Comanche leaders that both sides kept, one of the few settler agreements with that record. The town has been lodging visitors ever since: some 1,500 guest houses and B&Bs, with about 100 wineries strung along the 290 Wine Road. Luckenbach, ten miles out, rents by the town.
