Sebastopol House State Historic Site

The Sebastopol House State Historic Site features a spacious front porch, ornamental woodwork details, and tall columns typical of 1850s architecture.

Built during the mid-nineteenth century by J.P. Gallet, this structure demonstrates construction methods using limestone and adobe materials common in early Texas settlements.

The building served as a central gathering location for Seguin residents, hosting community discussions and social events throughout its early years.

Visitors can participate in guided tours of the property, which include detailed information about the architectural features and historical background of the house.

The structure represents one of the finest examples of Greek Revival residential architecture in Texas, with its symmetrical design and period-appropriate restoration.
