Historic Road Trip: Fredericksburg to Johnson City

The Hill Country is the birthplace of former President Lyndon Baines Johnson and the home of descendants of thousands of German immigrants who escaped political and religious persecution.

These historic ties backdropped by breathtaking natural scenery make this part of the Texas Hill Country a perfect cultural destination. War museums, presidential parks, and exhibits also make the trip a learning experience. For a relaxing time, visitors can enjoy the numerous biergartens, wineries, and distilleries in the area.
