The First Town in Texas
Welcome to Nacogdoches, where people live in the footprints of history. Sample the soul of this city, whose gracious streets are dotted with structures and landmarks sacred to Texas history. Tour Nacogdoches from two of the oldest thoroughfares in North America. Take a walk through Millard's Crossing, a collection of restored 19th century buildings, and feel the serenity and simplicity of that time. Stroll through the old brick streets of downtown and experience the charm of the many antique shops and quaint restaurants. Visit Stephen F. Austin State University, home to 11,990 students, and the Old Stone Fort, where Texas' first two newspapers were set to type. Make time to experience the native beauty as well as the charm of Nacogdoches. Choose from fishing, water skiing, camping and boating fun on either Lake Nacogdoches or Sam Rayburn Reservoir. Enjoy any of the 16 city parks, six city tennis courts and a rodeo or concert at the Nacogdoches County Exposition Center. Nestled deep in Texas Forest Country, you will discover the charm of Nacogdoches, and you may just decide to become a part of the First Town in Texas.
