Please help us fund our newest projects for more visits to the west end of Main St:
    

The Vereins Kirche is the symbol of Fredericksburg. More than 2,000 people a week peek in the doors. We want to make it an invitation and enticement to visit the Pioneer Museum down the street. To do that, we want to get large informational panels to place inside that depict the culture and panorama of exhibits that we have on display at the Pioneer Museum. Estimated cost of this project is $15,000 and we are looking for sponsors to help fund it. Sponsors of this program will receive a place on a plaque in the Vereins Kirche for their monetary donations over $1,000.
    

The other phase of our enhancement of the Pioneer Museum is to have a Self Guided Audio Tour System installed along with new signage for the buildings. We want to record our knowledgeable tour guides to preserve their stories as well as the stories of the families who lived and worked in the historic buildings that comprise the Pioneer Museum Complex. Visitors will have the option of touring the grounds at their own pace and listening to the recorded guide at the numbered exhibits that they wish to hear about. We anticipate this project costing $20,000 and sponsors over $1,000 will be recognized.

Thank you for your consideration in preserving and presenting the cultural panorama of the Texas Hill Country.
