Brenham, Texas

 
Brenham is located in between Austin and Houston on Hwy 290. It is the county seat of Washington County, “The Birthplace of Texas”. The town was first named Hickory Grove and later, in 1843, changed its name to Brenham in honor of the Republic of Texas hero Dr. Richard Fox Brenham.

Brenham has endured many hardships in its history including the 1867 yellow fever outbreak, the burning of downtown by federal occupation troops during the Reconstruction and destructive fires in 1873 and 1877. Immigration, primarily of Germans and Polish, peaked in the early 1880s and has left lasting traditions such as the Maifest, still celebrated to this day. In the late 1800's Brenham became a very significant marketing center with the arrival of the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railway.
