Castroville, TX Area Guide
A French village in the heart of Texas Hill Country
Nicknamed “The Little Alsace of Texas,” Castroville is a charming village that looks like it would fit in more on the northeastern French countryside rather than its own surrounding Texas Hill Country. Founded in 1844 by families from the Alsace region of France, Castroville boasts a rich history that is honored to this day, from the Landmark Inn State Historic Site and Alsatian Steinbach House Park to the many stately homes that populate the area.
Castroville offers a wide variety of cuisine to choose from, including numerous French bakeries and cafes as well as familiar chain restaurants. Aside from U.S. 90, Castroville is largely residential, offering an array of apartments and townhomes available for rent along tranquil, tree-dense avenues. Castroville Regional Park, Koenig Park, and the Medina River provide endless opportunities for outdoor recreation in town. Castroville is also just a 30-minute drive from all that San Antonio has to offer.

We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
