Granbury prides itself as the town "Where Texas History Lives." It is known for it's history and historic preservation. Granbury was founded in the 1860s. Most of the buildings in the Historic District  were built in the late 1800s. Many have been restored and proudly display Historical Markers. The Downtown Square, was the first town square in Texas to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and has become a prototype for restoration projects all over America.  Granbury is rich in history, rich in folklore, and a town where they still tell tales of Davy Crockett and Jesse James.  There are eight  festivals a year, some with strollers who dress in costumes from various historic periods, from the Civil War to the early 20th century.

There is no place like Granbury to enjoy the holiday season, starting with a grand entrance from Santa Claus the fourth weekend in November in a spectacular holiday parade.  The town goes to extremes to express the grandeur of the holiday season.

At the very least, Granbury is a quiet getaway, where the "Good Old Days Are Just Minutes Away."  From I-20 E take US377W to the Historic District Exit.
