BUILDINGS ON THE MOVE: Case Studies in Relocating Historic Structures (New Braunfels)
Join Preservation Texas in New Braunfels for a one-day Summit exploring the challenges, opportunities, and best practices involved in moving historic buildings. Through a series of recent Central Texas case studies, speakers will examine the historical context behind building relocations and share lessons learned from projects that have successfully balanced preservation goals with practical realities. Designed for preservation professionals, community advocates, property owners, and volunteers, the program will address the policy, advocacy, planning, and logistics involved in these complex projects.
The event will take place on Thursday, August 13, 2026, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the New Braunfels Conservation Society’s Historic Old Town (1300 Church Hill Drive), a 3.5-acre heritage village featuring 18 relocated nineteenth-century German-Texan structures. During the lunch break, attendees will have the opportunity to tour several of the site’s historic buildings. Lunch is included with registration. A virtual attendance option is also available.
Sponsorship opportunities are available for this event!
