2013 Map of Falls City

About this map

Falls City sits at the northern edge of this Karnes County landscape, where the winding course of the San Antonio River meets local history at Mays Crossing and Conquista Crossing. The area shows a distinct overlap of agricultural roots and industrial development, characterized by the Hobson Oil Field and Hysaw Oil Field. The presence of the Conquista Project Tailings Pond near Conquista Cr indicates the significant mineral extraction history of the region. Local genealogy is anchored by the Falls City Cem and Mueller Cem, while the small settlement of Deweesville and the Burris Ranch Airport provide additional points of interest for those tracing the rural evolution of south-central Texas. Waterways like Las Moras Cr and Marcelinas Cr define the drainage patterns of this terrain, punctuated by the natural feature of Skiles Falls and the man-made Nieschwietz Lake.
