Schulenburg
is nestled in
the corner of Historic Fayette County,
strategically located on I-10, 95 miles west of
Houston, 105 miles east of San Antonio, 80 miles
southeast of Austin and 65 miles north of
Victoria.
Cattle and wildflowers share the rolling hills
and open fields which surround it. Quaint
painted churches that have stood for generations
are symbolic of the area’s rich Czech and German
heritage. Today, residents celebrate seasonal
events like Christmas, Easter, Halloween, or
Independence Day by decorating their homes with
colorful flags and yard decorations.
Schulenburg is
the home of the Shorthorns, a venerable name in high school
football and a satellite campus of Blinn College. It also has a
Catholic Elementary School. Emphasis on education is appropriate
since Schulenburg in German means "school town".
A number of local
merchants have built such a strong reputation over the years
that they are practically synonymous with the town’s name. New
specialty shops continue to open their doors and modern
manufacturing plants go quietly about their business, producing
goods in Schulenburg that are shipped worldwide. Quality health
care is available.
Schulenburg is a great
place to raise children, a great place to retire or a great
place to just come and visit. The Schulenburg Chamber of
Commerce invites you to see for yourself why Schulenburg is
special. |
