The roadside stories worth pulling over for.
Built in 1901 for German immigrant Otto Koehler (1855-1914), this home was among the first in this area. Koehler, president of the Pearl Brewing Company, employed local architect Carl Von Seutter to design the home. One of the most spectacular examples of turn-of-the century Eclecticism in San Antonio, with outbuildings and grounds intact, the Koehler home was bult by Jaco Wagner with landscape design by G.A. Schattenberg.
