In 1852, German immigrants that settled in Austin formed a traditional singing group. Around twenty years later, the group officially organized as a singing society bearing the name “Saengerrunde”. The Saengerrunde is the oldest ethnic organization in Austin. A favorite meeting place for Saengerrunde members was Scholz Garden, a beer garden established in 1867 by German immigrant August Scholz. The Austin Saengerrunde club purchased the facilities, which have continued to encourage members and guests to preserve and enjoy German heritage.
Food, Fun, And History!
