Bluff SchuetzenFest Set For May 20 in La Grange
Mon, 05/01/2023 - 12:00am
For a half century, the historic Bluff Schuetzenverein invited people from across Texas to gather on the Bluff overlooking La Grange. They participated in marksmanship competitions, celebrated the holidays, enjoyed picnics, played games for young and old, and danced to German folk music. The Bluff became a favorite gathering place among German-Texans between the 1870s and 1920s. In many ways, the Schuetzenverein provided the glue that held the community together. The Friends of Kreische Brewery & Monument Hill State Historic Sites and the Texas Historical Commission are excited to bring back many of the Schuetzenverein’s traditions and celebrations with the second annual Bluff SchuetzenFest on Saturday, May 20.
