    Guest Suite - Alte Welt Gasthof - An Old World Inn - Fredericksburg, Texas

     

     

     

    Located in downtown Fredericksburg, Texas (the Heart of the Texas Hill Country) this Basse block guesthouse building was built in 1915 for the Stehling Brothers. Alte Welt Gasthof (Old World Inn) has two luxury guesthouse suites available. Alte Welt Gasthof features guesthouse style lodging with clean, relaxing European antique decor.

    Both spacious suites have private baths. One suite even has a large outside deck with a Hot Tub. Alte Welt Gasthof is in the heart of downtown Fredericksburg, Texas. Just step out the front door to Main Street Shops, Restaurants and FUN. It's only a block away from Fredericksburg's historic Marktplatz.

     

    Alvin and Felix Stehling had this building built in 1915 to house their combination menswear clothing store and dry cleaners downstairs. The upstairs was designed to be a boarding house. It is located in the middle of the central shopping block of the Hauptstrasse (Main Street). The menswear/dry cleaners stayed in continuous service to this German Immigrant community for 83 years. The boarding house upstairs was closed in about 1942. The upstairs was then used for storage until 1998 when it was remodeled by Ron and Donna Maddux into Alte Welt Gasthof. Alte Welt Gasthof is German for Old World Inn.
