- Seguin has been around since the dawn of Texas, but that doesn't mean this place is outdated. Actually -- it's full of fresh adventures and spots you'd never expect to find. From classic haunts to renovated historic buildings, this place is anything but ordinary.
This town has quite some nutty history. To honor Seguin’s long legacy of pecans, they built the world’s largest pecan statue in 1962 (5 feet tall) on the courthouse lawn. Then in 2002, John Pape decided to up the ante and build an even larger pecan statue (11 feet tall) outside of Pape Pecan house. Little did he know, Brunswick, MO, had already beat them out for the world’s largest pecan with an even larger statue. Finally in 2010, Seguin reclaimed the title (for now) with the 16-foot monster outside the Texas Agricultural Center.
Seguin is also home to the World’s Largest Nutcracker Collection. Head on to Pape Pecan House to peruse the collection of over eight thousand crackers from all around the world including characters like Darth Vader, figurines like the presidents and even some you’ve never even seen before.
This home is a historic wonder. Not only is it made entirely of “limecrete” (a form of early concrete), but it is built in the Greek Revival style and has a special way of storing water on the roof. It’s definitley worth a visit - especially to see the special exhibit on freed slaves who made a huge difference in history.
As one of the oldest cities in Texas, it should come as no surprise that Seguin has it’s fair share of ghost stories - most of which are at this 1844 hotel. Take a tour using fancy ghost hunting tools to see if you can meet all 13 of the spirits haunting this old building. Whether you believe in ghosts or not, you’re in for a truly good scare.
Guero’s Backyard is like an upscale neighborhood block party - except instead of burnt hamburgers and cold hotdogs, they’re serving up some of the best fusion street tacos you’ve ever eaten. Filled with fresh ingredients like sesame crusted ahi tuna, seared flank steak and collard greens, and they’re unlike anything you’ve tasted before.
Sitting on Texas’s own version of Niagra Falls is an old power plant that’s been converted to a comfort food cafe with an electric atmosphere. I highly suggest the Chicken Fried Steak smothered in Queso because, well, you can’t get anymore Texan than that.
Who would’ve thought that the perfect island getaway would be smack in the middle of Texas? Sons island is a tropical paradise and natural island miles away from the nearest ocean, full of cabanas, hammocks, water fun and island vibes!

I was born and raised in Seguin and it is EXPLODING lately. ❤ Still live here. Family has been here for 200 years.
Good places to eat
I worked an 18 hour day, so I'll give a thumbs up and watch it later. I'm never disappointed with your documentaries.
Seguin is definitely going through a boom! 💛
Where good places to eat
@@antonioflores5223 Su casa! Burnt bean. Blake’s Cafe. Ebi ebi Sushi. A-Tan. Johnny’s BBQ. Clear Springs (between Seguin/NewB) Lola’s Mexican restaurant. Noes Tacos (for breakfast tacos) and we have really cool food trucks too.
I screamed when the flashlight was turned off. Man, that was freaky as hell. This is probably your best video, a combination of relaxation and dread, ha ha.
Seguin added to the want to go list.
My Mom was born and raised in Seguin, and my Dad lived next door to the Magnolia Hotel.
Definitely a road trip with my family!!!
I've lived in Seguin since 1986. I've seen it grow and have some ups and downs, but since this airing it has grown 50% more in just under 1 year! I even applied and now work at Son's Island just because of this episode! Sadly the Seguin location is shut down due to the river and hurricane damage, but he has 4 other locations!
Living up in NB just north of Seguin my whole life, I've never heard of some of these places to visit. Like the Sebastopol House or the Powerplant turned into a restaurant. Such a beautiful place to live.
Excellent video!
I have driven I10 many times right on thru to San Antonio. I never knew there was that much Town/Town Square in Seguin
Maybe I need to slow down a bit…. Ya think?
You need to do a show on the Burnt Bean.
I think he did a few months ago
I go there all the time for work and it does feel like an old town when I drive through to the Taco Bell I take the long way through town
Cool. Thanks
Love how you pronounce pecan, when I hear somebody pronounce it like peecan I cringe 😅. Chicken fried steak smothered in queso can't get much better than that 👍. This is one awesome city can't wait to visit the Pate Pecan museum 😁
Gotta go!
You need to daytrip to Lockhart!
Surprised you didn't visit the burnt bean, which is one of the best BBQ places in Texas.
When am I going to see all the hot spots in Somerset?
worked a job there in 2012 at the steal mill replacing some machinary
We just did a ghost investigation at the theater there in Seguin this past weekend.
Road trip!
I live in canyon lake near Seguin
I wonder how old this episode is since Sons Island on the Guadalupe is gone now due to the draining of the lake.
It was filmed in 2019. But Son's should come back when they finish the work on the lake.
This was filmed in March I bet because usually the trees are green everywhere lol
What did you do the other 23 and a half hours?
Be honest , have you tried something that you didn’t like ?? Food wise ?!
You didn't go to the burnt bean!!!
That restaurant is closed down and Sons Island is not in Seguin, it’s in Marion.
Which restaurant? We try to stay up to date. And Marion won't support a full episode. So we roped it into Seguin.
Don't move here it sucks especially don't get in trouble in this county
I seen this before? Rerun?
I’m thinking I’ve seen it before.
What about New Braunfels
22:37 She can't go up there she's a blonde
I hate Texas I can’t wait til my probation is over so I can leave this place
