see historic Guadalupe County Jail
County Seat – Seguin
Built – 1935
Style – Moderne
Architect – L. M. Wirtz
Pictures taken: November 7, 2004
Seguin is near San Antonio, and these pictures were taken on a Sunday drive through that part of the San Antonio area. My impressions of the courthouse focus on the clean and clear Moderne style the courthouse represents. It is well-maintained and probably one of the best examples of the mid-30’s. There is a giant pecan in front of the courthouse, representing one of the area’s best known crops.
