More than the home of Blue Bell Creameries, Brenham is known as the Birthplace of Texas. The signing of the Texas Declaration of Independence took place nearby on March 2, 1836 at what is now the Washington-on-the-Brazos State Historic Site. The city also boasts antiques shopping galore. Surrounded by idyllic fields of wildflowers, horse farms, and wineries, Brenham also offers fishing, boating, birding, hiking, or camping in the area along Lake Somerville or the Brazos River.
