Display On Czech Wedding Traditions Opens in La Grange

A portion of the new display “Texas-Czech Wedding Apparel and Traditions” now open at the Texas Czech Heritage and Cultural Center in La Grange.

The Texas Czech Heritage and Cultural Center (TCHCC) is pleased to open a beautiful new display, Texas-Czech Wedding Apparel and Traditions, of wedding dresses, associated apparel, and information on early wedding traditions in the main museum.

The exhibit includes ten dresses that have been donated by our members and are from weddings that occurred from 1883 to 1946. Although many things have changed in the modern era, many wedding ceremonies and their traditions have endured. Take a walk back in time and view these fragile mementos and leave with an understanding of Czech culture and traditions that are still alive today. The exhibit opened March 16 and will close November 15, 2021. TCHCC is located just north of La Grange on US Hwy 77 adjacent to the Fayette County Fairgrounds. The hours are Tuesday – Friday, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m., and Saturday, 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. For more information, call 888-785-4500 or visit the website, www.czechtexas.org.
