A historic Alsatian home in the Castroville Historic District

• ... that the well-preserved colonial Alsatian architecture (pictured) in the Castroville Historic District leads Castroville to be known as the "little Alsace" of Texas? Source: "Castroville, the "little Alsace" of Texas, is located on the Medina River ..." (Ochoa, Ruben E. "Castroville, TX". Handbook of Texas Online. Texas State Historical Association.) "Castroville's significance lies in its retention of the physical appearance and quality of a colony of the 1840's with ethnic unity. ... The town has a distinct Alsatian character that has been preserved, as the community was bypassed by the railroad and industry." ("NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES INVENTORY - NOMINATION FORM (70000758)" (PDF). National Park Service. April 3, 1970.)
