General Information about the City of La Grange • La Grange is nestled along the Colorado River and features history, beauty, festivals, museums, concerts, and antiques. • The streets of La Grange were laid out several years before the organization of Fayette County in 1837. First populated by Austin's colonists - "The Original Three Hundred", then followed by German immigrants in the 1840's and Czech and Moravians in the 1850's, the cultures of these pioneers are evident today. • www. cityoflg. com • http: //visitlagrangetx. com
