The Weber Sunday House served as a place to eat and rest when the Weber family made the seven-mile trip to town for shopping and church. This type of structure is unique to the Fredericksburg area. As roads and vehicles improved, the Sunday Houses fell into disuse. With the outbreak of World War II and gas rationing, life in the Sunday Houses became as warm and friendly as it had ever been. |
