Walking Tour of Fredericksburg - Christian Crenwelge Place

From the Probst Home and Brewery, turn right and walk back to Orange Street. Cross the creek and turn left on Schubert. There is a historic marker at the end of the block on the right.

Christian Crenwelge, who owned the property across the street, purchased this land in 1872 and operated a molasses press. In 1903, Crenwelge built the frame house on the corner for his daughter and her husband, but sold the house in 1906. The property changed hands many times until McAdoo White bought in 1974 and began landscaping the grounds, creating a beautiful creekside patio.
