Gruene Hall

---

Gruene Hall was built as a Dance Hall and Saloon in the 1880's for the residents of Gruene, Texas (located 37 miles northeast of downtown San Antonio and 4 miles northeast of New Braunfels); this is the oldest dance hall in Texas. For the German farmers who arrived in the area in the 1840's, this served as the center of the community's social life. The dance hall is located next door to the Gristmill restaurant.
