Guadalupe County, County administrative division in central Texas, United States
Guadalupe County is an administrative region in central Texas with Seguin serving as its county seat. The area encompasses several communities and is defined by major transportation corridors including Interstate 10 and Interstate 35.
The territory was officially established as a county in 1846 and named after the Guadalupe River, which Spanish explorer Alonso de Leon had documented in 1689. German settlers began acquiring land from 1846 onward and founded numerous communities that shaped local development.
German settlers purchased land from August Schumann in 1846, establishing numerous communities that influenced the development of local traditions and architecture.
The region is easily accessible via Interstate 10 and Interstate 35, providing convenient connections to San Antonio and Austin. Visitors will find amenities including shops, restaurants, and accommodations throughout Seguin and surrounding communities.
The discovery of the Darst Creek oilfield in 1929 transformed the region from a purely agricultural area into one with industrial and service-based operations. This shift brought new employment opportunities and economic change that continues to influence the communities today.
