Franklin courthouse, 1883.
Architect: F. E. Ruffini
One of the oldest still in use!
On our way here, we had a lovely lunch at Lee's Landing in Rockdale.
Franklin jail.
Bryan courthouse, 1965.
Architects: Caudill, Rowlett & Scott
UGH! There's plywood on some of the windows! This is definitely one of the ugliest courthouses.
The drive from Franklin to here was gorgeous.
Brenham courthouse, 1939.
Architect: Travis Broesche
Brenham is home to Blue Bell Ice Cream, which has fun tours during the week (closed on weekends), and a lovely downtown.
Detail from the Brenham courthouse - I love the eagle and the window! And you can see Christmas lights still...
From Brenham we drove through Round Top and Warrenton, which are cool little towns. Round Top has a big antiques festival twice a year. The drive was lovely.
