1958 Map of New Braunfels West

About this map

New Braunfels expands across the Comal and Guadalupe county lines in this mid-century topographic record, which documents the post-war growth of the city alongside its foundational landscapes. The map captures the significant industrial and recreational infrastructure of the era, from the sprawling grounds of Landa Park and its Golf Course to the limestone-heavy industrial site at Dittlinger. The transportation network is dominated by the Missouri Pacific and Missouri Kansas Texas railroads, which parallel the distinct course of Dry Comal Creek. To the west, the landscape transitions into ranch land and residential developments like Landa Park Highlands and Jentsch Acres. Researchers will find of particular interest the location of the Danville (Site), as well as family-named landmarks like Krueger Ranch and the established Seele Sch.
