==History==
In 1831, the Mexican government granted of land to Kesiah Crier. Crier's family and the James Lyons family were the first white settlers in the area. The town of Schulenburg developed from two nearby communities: Lyons, founded in 1842, and High Hill, settled in 1842 and later named in 1858. In 1873, the Galveston, Harris and San Antonio Railroad bought land in the area, then built a depot on the portion formerly owned by Louis Schulenburg, naming it after him.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Schulenburg, Texas )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Profile for Schulenburg, Texas, TX )〕 The first train arrived on New Year's Eve of 1873, and the town was formally incorporated on May 24, 1875.
Many of the early settlers to Schulenburg and the surrounding area were of German, Austrian and Czechoslovakian descent, and the area still shows evidence of their culture.〔 Local bakeries are noted for their kolaches. Other immigrants of Jewish descent also made Schulenburg their home and many of them became merchants.〔("Tri-County Jewish Community: Columbus, Hallettsville, La Grange, Schulenburg" ), found in the (Encyclopedia of Southern Jewish Communities ),〕
The town is also known as the home of Stanzel Flying Models, makers of wire-controlled and free-flight model airplanes for nearly 70 years.
