Town History
At College Station Web Design, we’re proud to serve the historic community of Brenham, Texas—a town that blends deep Texas roots with modern charm. Originally named Hickory Grove, Brenham took its current name in 1843 to honor Dr. Richard Fox Brenham, a hero of the Texas Republic. Just a year later, it became the county seat of Washington County. Early settlers were part of Stephen F. Austin’s “Old Three Hundred,” and by the mid-1800s, a significant influx of German immigrants shaped the cultural landscape. Today, Brenham embraces this heritage through well-preserved architecture, local festivals, and seasonal displays of wildflowers, especially bluebonnets. Known for its agricultural legacy and its manufacturing industry, Brenham has grown into a vibrant small town with a strong sense of identity—and we’re excited to support its businesses with digital solutions that reflect that spirit.
