STONEWALL, TEXAS. Stonewall is on
the Pedernales River thirteen miles east of Fredericksburg
in southeastern Gillespie County. Coming from the east
you'll find Stonewall is on U.S. 290 west of Austin.
We have the sweetest, juiciest peaches
found any where in Texas. Some of the best wines from
wineries located in the area are waiting for your tasting.
There's lots to do in the area with such
local attractions as Lyndon B. Johnson (36th President of
the U.S.) State Historical Park, Sauer-Beckmann History
Farm, numerous wineries and breweries, and our Annual
Peach Jamboree and Rodeo.
Stonewall is the birthplace of President
Lyndon B. Johnson. Visit the Lyndon B. Johnson State
Historical Park, where you can catch a guided tour of the
LBJ Ranch. You can also visit the Sauer- Beckmann
Farmstead, a farm that recalls the early 1900s. Near
Stonewall is Johnson City, named for LBJ’s grandfather,
Sam Ealy Johnson, Sr. LBJ moved here from Stonewall when
he was five years old. The headquarters for the Lyndon B.
Johnson National Historic Park is here, as is the former
president’s boyhood home.
