With roots dating back to the German Volkfest in 1874, Brenham Maifest is the oldest festival in the great State of Texas. Having such a rich history, the Brenham Maifest Association is building our archives of past Maifest celebrations. We would love to keep in perpetuity your family’s Maifest memories, from ticket stubs to programs, pictures, Royal attire, crowns, or other materials that will help us tell the story of the oldest German festival in Texas! You can email us or make arrangements to bring your memorabilia to Board Director Amber Westerfeld in downtown Brenham by calling 979-836-7623.
