Anhalt Hall

First section built 1879 — just months after Gruene Hall — making Anhalt one of the two oldest dance halls in Texas. Larger meeting hall added 1887-1898; the celebrated 6,000 sq ft oak dance floor came in 1908. Added to the National Register of Historic Places July 2018. Still owned by descendants of the original Germania Farmer Verein — the most architecturally and culturally unbroken example of the 19th-century German-Texan dance hall tradition. Annual Maifest and Oktoberfest are anchor events.
