A HILL COUNTRY ROMANCE

Welcome to The Adelphia

A HISTORICAL TEXAS VENUE

Immerse yourself in the rich history of this restored home and estate, located in Lampasas, Texas. John Markward, a German merchant built the main house for the love of his life, Adelphia, and married her on the front steps in 1881. The cottage and main house have been restored back to it’s original glory. Huge century-old oak trees surround the structures and are subtly illuminated in the evening and throughout the night.

Throughout this impressive historical home, you can’t help but notice the details John Markward included for Adelphia. The Adelphia has earned placement on the National Register of Historic Homes and we can’t wait to show you the love we have put into it.

Sitting in the hill country approximately 1 hr outside of Austin, lies a newly renovated event barn available for weddings, corporate events, and family gatherings. Featuring two huge television screens, a fully appointed warming kitchen, three bathrooms, four stunning chandeliers, and full climate control. The porch on the west side extends the length of the building and is accessible through large glass sliding barn doors that offer views of the gorgeous Texas sunsets, framed by the massive century-old heritage oak trees, a giant manicured lawn as well as a stock pond.
