Painted Churches Tour March 7th

Details

This is a chance to visit some of our most historic and lovely churches. Most were built and painted by local Czech and German

Catholic families who arrived in Texas during the 1840s and 1850s. The statuary and altars came from Europe or San Antonio

and are decorated with gold leaf. The tour guide is usually a local priest or pastor from the churches we visit. After visiting two

churches, we will stop for a well-earned rest at the delicious buffet at Oakridge Smokehouse before continuing to the next

two churches. You will learn all about early Texas history on the way to and from Schulenburg.
