Where is Fredericksburg?
Fredericksburg is located in the heart of the Texas Hill Country just under 80 miles from Austin or San Antonio. The following maps will help you pinpoint the Roundup location.
Map of the region including Austin, San Antonio, Kerrville and Fredericksburg, and the important highways.
Directions to the Roundup at the MarktPlatz (German for Market Square) in Fredericksburg:
Market Square is located in the center of downtown Fredericksburg on the north side of Highway 290 (also known as Main Street). If you are coming into Fredericksburg on Hwy. 290 from the East (Austin, Johnson City, Stonewall) you will pass the Nimitz Museum (the big “Steamboat” shaped wooden building) on your right. Three further blocks (beginning at the intersection of Main and N. Adams) you will find the Roundup. Watch for the round, eight-sided building. The event covers the entire park-like grounds of the Marktplatz.
If you are coming into Fredericksburg from the West (Junction, Sonora, Fort Stockton and points West, watch on your left. The Roundup grounds are on the block beginning at the corner of N. Crockett and Main (City Hall and the Fire Station are on that corner.
If you are coming from San Antonio via Interstate 10 West to Comfort and on into Fredericksburg on Hwy. 87 from there, Hwy. 87 becomes Washington St. It intersects Hwy. 290 at the corner where the Nimitz Museum is located. Turn left and proceed three blocks to the Market Square.
If you are coming from San Antonio via Interstate 10 West to Kerrville and on into Fredericksburg on Hwy. 16 from there, Hwy. 16 becomes Adams. You will therefore intersect Main at the West corner of the Market Square.
