About Castroville
Wilkome! Safely nestled within the elbow of the meandering, emerald-green Medina River, the quaint village of Castroville boasts a history as rich and wide as Texas itself. Founded in 1844 by the famous empresario, Henri Castro, Castroville rests peacefully 15 miles toward the sunset from San Antonio. Affectionately known as “The Little Alsace of Texas” this truly Texas town has comingled its Alsatian heritage of yesteryear with the flare of the American rural west.
A perfect getaway for anyone looking for either a day trip or a multi-night excursion, offering cozy accommodations, fine dining, unique shops, recreational spaces and beautiful parks.
Castroville is meant to be indulged slowly at your own leisurely pace. Slip on your walking shoes, follow the signs, and take a self-guided walking tour featuring over 60 historic dwellings from the mid 19th century. It’s truly a step back in time as you encounter Alsatian-style cottages and architecture of that era. http://www.castroville.com/
