Fayette County Homes & Ranches for Sale

Fayette County “the cradle of Czech immigration.” In the 19th century, Czech immigrants settled in pockets around Texas—just follow the kolaches—but the concentration of new arrivals in Fayette County created a rich Czech tradition that persists today in the region’s music, food, and culture.

Fayette County has 30 vintage dance halls that are still standing, more than any other county in Texas.

The Czech pioneers also erected churches modeled after European cathedrals, with elaborately painted walls and opulent altars. More than 20 “painted churches” were built throughout the region, including striking examples in Praha (St. Mary’s Church of the Assumption, 1895), Dubina (Sts. Cyril and Methodius Catholic Church, 1912), Ammannsville (St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, 1918), and High Hill (St. Mary Catholic Church, 1906). The churches keep their doors open during the day, so anyone can visit.

The Fayette County Courthouse, built in Romanesque Revival style in 1891 and beautifully restored in 2005, dominates the downtown square. Self-guided tour pamphlets are available in the courthouse, and docents with the La Grange Visitors Bureau offer tours on Saturdays.
