TEXAS WENDISH HERITAGE

GIDDINGS, TX

World's Largest Dime in a Box! I heard “tap, tap, tapping” coming from the “Texas Room” Saturday morning. I was afraid that somehow, a raven had come in through my door… However, it was Alamo Basement Aggie Ring tapping old 1940s Mercury Head Dimes. I knew instantly where he wanted me to drive him. Not long after, we were in Dime Box, Texas to see the World’s largest “Dime in a Box”. Aggie Ring says that it’s the largest “Dime in a Box” in the known universe! We left a Mercury Dime on the box! The immense size of the city of Dime Box, Texas was shocking. It’s the New York City of Texas. One could spend days in Dime Box and still not see everything.

Texas Wendish Heritage is a museum located in the town of Giddings, Texas that aims to preserve and celebrate the unique culture and heritage of the Wendish people. The Wendish people are a Slavic ethnic group that originally inhabited the region of Lusatia, which is now part of Germany and Poland. In the mid-19th century, a group of Wendish immigrants came to Texas and settled in the area around Giddings.

The Texas Wendish Heritage museum features exhibits and artifacts that showcase the history and traditions of the Wendish people, including their language, music, crafts, and religious practices. Visitors can explore a replica of a traditional Wendish house, see examples of Wendish embroidery and weaving, and learn about the Wendish Lutheran Church, which was founded by the immigrants.

In addition to the museum, the Texas Wendish Heritage Society hosts a variety of events throughout the year, including a Wendish Fest in September that features food, music, and dancing. The museum also offers educational programs for schools and groups, and has a gift shop where visitors can purchase Wendish crafts and souvenirs.

Overall, Texas Wendish Heritage is a unique and fascinating destination for anyone interested in learning about the history and culture of the Wendish people and their contributions to Texas.
