New Braunfels Railroad Museum

The New Braunfels Railroad Museum is a delightful location that is perfect for locomotive aficionados. If you’re looking for places to go that’ll give you insight into Texas’ railroad history, then well, you’re in the right place! It is made up of a former depot building that has been restored. Specifically, the building was used for the Union Pacific, the International & Great Northern, and the Missouri Pacific lines. Completely free to enter and explore, the New Braunfels Railroad Museum gives you the chance to view a mix of full-size and miniature locomotives. You’ll get to see a genuine 1950s caboose, a restored authentic Pullman dining car, and a tourable railcar and engine. You may even have the chance to drive a model train, watch a train show, or visit the library, which houses an impressive 600 or so books related to railroads and locomotives. Address: 302 W San Antonio St, New Braunfels, TX 78130, United States

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
