Historic Resources

There are a number of historic resources in La Grange. In addition to buildings, they also include the city cemetery and the Dawson Oak. Commercial development during La Grange's early years centered in the areas around the Courthouse. As a result, this area is the location of the majority of the historic resources of La Grange. These buildings, constructed between 1880 and 1950, reflect the prosperity and development of the City of La Grange.

Currently, within the city limits, 25 historic resources have been registered with the Texas Historic Commission (THC) and three of these have received recognition as National Historic Landmarks.
