Summary: Fredericksburg may be in Texas — but if you squint and sniff just a bit you’ll get a real taste of Germany. Just a 90-minute drive from San Antonio, Fredericksburg keeps its visitors busy with a German heritage, historic museums, varied accommodations, gourmet restaurants, wineries and festivals. Don’t get me wrong, this is not a Disneyland presentation of Germany – with lederhosen and Bavarian chalets — Fredericksburg’s soul may be German, but its history is firmly planted in Texas’ pioneer past.
