LA GRANGE — Kreische Brewery and Monument Hill State Historic Sites held the official ribbon cutting for its new, innovative children’s playscape on Thursday, Nov. 7.
The ceremony was well-attended by staff and volunteers, members of the Monument Hill State Historic Sites Friends’ organization, and families from across the Fayette County community. Texas Historical Commission Executive Director Joseph Bell, County Judge Dan Mueller, and La Grange Mayor Jan Dockery were also present to celebrate the playground’s completion and grand opening.
The new playground, an outdoor interactive exhibit, provides an engaging and educational way for families to explore the stories of the Kreische family and Monument Hill. Located within a stone’s throw of its historic inspiration, the playscape is uniquely designed to foster a deeper connection to the local heritage while offering hands-on fun for children of all ages.
