San Marcos marker.
San Marcos courthouse, 1908.
Archtect: C. H. Page
Oddly enough, there were no war memorials outside. This courthouse is seen for a moment in the film "The Getaway" - the old one with Steve McQueen and Ali McGraw!
New Braunfels courthouse, 1898.
Architect: James Riely Gordon
Same architect as Giddings - notice the rounded corners - and the unfortunate addition.
2013 update: This courthouse has since been restored back to her original glory - the addition is now gone!
We stopped at Naegelin's Bakery, which is always a treat! Faust Brewery and Inn has rooms and brews, the brews are good. Wurstfest is a German sausage festival that's held in November every year - worth the trip!
Seguin courthouse, 1935.
Architect: L. M. Wirtz
Has an elaborate Veterans' Memorial and the largest pecan in the world. 
Who knew?
Wow we didn't know that pecans were a New World food item! Cool!
