Washington-on-the-Brazos State Historic Site
People revere Washington-on-the-Brazos State Historic Site as the site of the signing of the Texas Declaration of Independence on March 2, 1836. Thereafter, despite great personal risk, the delegates continued meeting until they had drafted a constitution and established the new nation’s first lasting government.
Picturesque Washington-on-the-Brazos State Historic Site is located on the Brazos River. Expansive park grounds provide a beautiful setting for picnicking, sightseeing and bird-watching. The Star of the Republic Museum, Independence Hall and Barrington Living History Farm offer the visitor a unique insight into the lives and times of the men who fought and won Texas’ independence from Mexico.
Conference center provides a beautiful view of the park. Glass doors, windows and patio overlook the historic grounds and provide a perfect location for receptions, rehearsal dinners and weddings. Maximum capacity 400.
Westwood Cinema 6
Westwood cinema 6 is a small theater in Brenham, Texas. But don’t let our size fool you! We play all the current films our six screens can hold!
Toubin Park
Beneath Brenham streets is a large system of historic cisterns. The cisterns were built in the late 1800s to store rainwater for public fire fighting. Private cisterns were also abundant throughout early Washington County, used for bathing, drinking and cooking. The large system of public cisterns in early Brenham was a rarity. Enjoy the Wild West story of why these cisterns were built. It’s a tale of an early railroad, a rough Boom Town, and colorful characters who shaped Washington County’s history. Self-guided tours through this historic Downtown Brenham pocket park can be enjoyed any time of the day.

Chapelton Vineyards
Welcome to the Texas countryside where you can relax and enjoy a selection of local wines, celebrate a milestone, escape the city for a weekend in our villa, and spend time reconnecting with yourself and loved ones. Our mission here at Chapelton Vineyards is to provide you with an environment where premium wine is our priority, and to create opportunities for you to explore your wine knowledge further. We invite you to taste our wines, relax and unwind, and enjoy your time with us here. The vision for Chapelton Vineyards was born out of the Lyn’s love of the countryside. Living most of their life in the city, when they discovered Washington, TX, they fell in love with the relaxing experience, rolling hills, and of course the sunsets. After they bought property and built their personal home in Washington CO, they wanted to share their experience with others and bought more property in 2018 where they started the foundation for what is now Chapelton Vineyards. The vineyard was planted in 2019 & 2020, and the foundation of the winery building was poured in February of 2020. We are excited to continue to expand and grow our production facility as well as our estate vineyard. Follow us on social media to stay up to date on all of our upcoming events and releases!
