The Burleson County Historical Society assists in the preservation of buildings, historical sites, works of art, documents, papers, pictures, records and writings of historical, traditional and cultural value, and to perpetuate those customs of the people and traditions and folklore which seem to beautify and enrich the community life of Burleson County. From the first explorers along the old Camino Real to the days of the Texas’ Revolution and Civil War, on to the influx of Czech immigrants and the emergence of ranching, agriculture and oil booms, we strive to preserve our remarkable and intricate history.

Thank you to those that visited us at the Kraitchar House during the Kolache Festival. We love showing off our historical house. Thanks also to our demonstrators. Did you help churn the butter, grind the corn, watch the spinner, feel the fire of the blacksmith, be amazed at the lace being made or watch the weaving?
We are extending our book sale. Email [email protected] for how to buy a book or purchase an engraved brick.

Back by popular demand—
During the Kolache Festival we will be having a landscape fundraiser. We are selling 1 year-old Live Oak trees in pots, ready to plant, harvested from the large Live Oak tree in the backyard of the Kraitchar House. But, each tree has been assigned a name of a Kraitchar family member. The photos and a short story of the family member are posted on the tree stake. So, you will help the landscape fundraiser and learn something about the Kraitchar family that lived in the house!!
One example photo is included, but there will be five different Kraitchar family members for the trees during the sale. Which Kraitchar family Live Oak tree will you plant in your yard?!?! Each tree is $20.
