It's Christmas Time!

What a wonderful start to the Season of Christmas that to spend quality time with 3,000 or more of your fellow city citizens around a lovely downtown square in a beautiful German-American city! That what our New Braunfels Downtown Tree Lighting Ceremony is like. Every year just before Thanksgiving we all meet at the square in front of our beautiful Courthouse around dusk and with much pomp and ceremony, our Mayor pulls the switch to light up the square and Courthouse. Santa makes an appearance in an antique fire engine and listens to every child's Christmas list.
