Take a walk-through History in Parker County
Comte Paul de Bresson Stable
The Comte Paul de Bresson Stable is a Rare Glimpse of French Heritage in North Texas. Built in the late 19th century probably by French stone masons who crafted the iconic Parker County Courthouse and United Methodist Church, this stable is the last remaining example of French country architecture in our region. It's stone walls and elegant design uniquely testify to Parker County's international roots and remind us that our area was a crossroads for global commerce and culture even in its early years.
