Worth the trip to La Grange, TX, to check out! Monument Hill, Kreische Home & Brewery State historic sites sit on a sandstone bluff above the Colorado River. Beautiful views of the river, town & scenery in the area. Monument Hill is a crypt and memorial to the men who died in the Dawson Massacre and in the “Black Bean” episode of the ill-fated Mier Expedition. Literally, they had to draw a bean to see who would die or not. ud83dude2e The house and brewery have a lot of historic information on building strategies at the time. Kreische was quite accomplished in many endeavors. A reasonable $4/each to enter the parks. No tours right now with CoVid - but you can easily self tour. A small bit of walking - but manageable. A quite worthwhile stop!
Great little park now managed by the Texas Historical Commission. Nice views of the Colorado Rover valley and La Grange. Informative ranger walks and talks of the Kreische Brewery ruins and the family home. Great area for picnics with a small playground for kids.
Interesting site and cool ruins of the old brewhouse. Be aware, it's no longer a state park so your Parks Pass will not defray the $5 admission!
Great place to visist.
