Blue Door Haus

Just minutes from the Blue Door Haus!

St. Mary's Catholic Church at 304 San Antonio Street in 1934. The first Catholic church in Fredericksburg was a log house built in 1848.

In 1863, it was replaced by this stone building. By 1901, the church building was too small for the congregation, so a new church was designed by San Antonio architect Leo M.J. Dielmann and built by contractor Jacob Wagner in 1906. You can see part of the new St. Mary's to the left.

Now called Old St. Mary's, its place in the history of German immigration to Texas lead it to be listed as a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 1994.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“ Spacious and great for our group of five adults and one toddler. Awesome backyard, big kitchen, and good bathrooms. Easy to get to Main Street (quick drive) and about a 10 minute walk. Good home base for wine tastings, exploring town, and golf at Lady Bird and Boot Ranch. If traveling with similar number of people we would stay here again.”

Thanks for the glowing review, Caitlin!

We have worked closely with our property management company to make sure our home meets the heightened cleanliness standards that we expect when we go to a vacation rental (and anyone who knows me knows this is true!). So when we hear about how clean our home is from guests, a little part of me does a happy dance. 🤣🤣🤣

Thank you for your stay, Selina!
