Brenham, Texas, Images of America, Paperback
Brenham, Texas, Images of America, Paperback While "Born in Brenham" is a local badge of honor, thousands of people who are not originally from the area have been welcomed into the charming city and nearby rural communities of Washington County. Visitors and newcomers will discover a relaxed atmosphere infused with the better aspects of the past. Even in the face of modern change and growth, history occupies a place of value, and traditions in Brenham still reign. Maifest, the spring celebration spawned by German immigrants, has been an annual tradition since 1881, and young and old alike line downtown streets to cheer on the royal courts. The Washington County Fair is the oldest in Texas, honoring the family farms and ranches that still abound. The streets surrounding the courthouse square have remained largely intact for the past century. Once fueled by cotton and railroads, Brenham's economy now reflects a diversity that ranges from artists to ice cream, and historic buildings are seen as treasures to be adapted and reused.
