10 Things to do Good for Big Groups in Fredericksburg That You Shouldn't Miss

August 9, 2021 Layne Dawes

In the heart of Texas Hill Country, Fredericksburg is a small city with a unique German flavor in its quaint bakeries, Hauptstrasse (Main Street) boutiques and generations-old peach orchards. Weekenders from nearby San Antonio and Austin have long appreciated the charm of the city's many B&Bs and "Sunday House" Inns. The surrounding Texas Hill Country is home to lush vineyards, making up one of the country's largest viticultural areas.

National Museum of the Pacific War

*Open Wed-Sun.Online ticket purchase only* Formerly the Nimitz Museum, the complex is now the only museum in the Continental United States centered on World War II's Pacific campaign. Since 1968, the Museum has expanded to occupy a six-acre campus and gained a reputation as one of the premier military museums in the nation. Over the years the Museum was upgraded and enlarged, and the campus grew to accommodate the Memorial Courtyard, the Plaza of Presidents and the Japanese Garden of Peace. We opened the expanded George H. W. Bush Gallery in 2009. The Gallery's state-of-the-art 33,000 square foot exhibition features 40 media installations, approximately 900 artifacts in 97 climate-controlled cases, 15 macro-artifacts, and hundreds of photographs. Two blocks east of the main campus is the Pacific Combat Zone. Recently reopened after an $8 million renovation. The PCZ is also home to our popular WWII Pacific Combat Program that takes place on set weekends throughout the year.

We had no idea this museum was in Fredericksburg - only an hour drive from Austin. My grandfather is a WWII vet who served in the Pacific, and the staff went above and beyond to help us honor him with a beautiful memorial in their gallery. They even gave me a rendering that I can provide to my grandfather, since he is too elderly to travel. We spent 5+ hours at the museum admiring the detailed and perfectly curated exhibits (including the remarkable oral history collected from veterans), and are so excited to come back when the renovated Admiral Nimitz Gallery reopens. Highly recommend!
