The Sophienburg Museum

In Central Texas, German settlers came to establish a brand new colony, and the best way to learn about their actions and history is at the Sophienburg Museum. The museum is home to a wide array of information, artifacts, maps, articles, and photographs relating to those colonists as they made their way into America into what was, atu the time, referred to as Indian Territory. The Sophienburg Museum allows you to trail the tracks of Prince Carl and his fellow settlers with more than a million different items on display. Lectures, research material offerings, and events are provided and held regularly so you can learn even more about the city’s heritage, as well as the heritage of the surrounding Comal County.

Brauntex Performing Arts Theatre

Watching a performance at the Brauntex Performing Arts Theatre is one of the most fun stuff to do in the lovely city of New Braunfels, providing high-quality entertainment and modern technology hand-in-hand. It is on the National Register of Historic Places and it was opened at a crucial time – just as Pearl Harbor was attacked, plunging America into war. People came to the theatre to seek reprieve from the painful realities of the world. The Brauntex Performing Arts Theatre opened as a cinema, or a movie theatre, in 1942. This was right after another theatre had burned down in the area, meaning more audience members were naturally drawn to it. When it was almost left to rot, locals pooled together to save it, and in the late 1990s, it was preserved, restored, and reopened as a performing arts center – which is how it remains now! The Brauntex Performing Arts Theatre is one of the area’s chief destinations for performance arts. The theatre boasts more than 605 seats and mixes lush art-deco architecture with high-tech modern technology. Performers of all kinds, from comedians to bands and from singers to acting troupes, come to showcase their art and talent here every year. Address: 290 W San Antonio St, New Braunfels, TX 78130, United States
