THE PAST!
THE TEXAS
RENAISSANCE
FESTIVAL
It's a time of knights, wenches, dragons,
nymphs, sorcerers, funny accents and men
in tights.
While men in tights aren't the usual sight and
women may not always appreciate being called
wenches, things get a little crazy around Texas
Renaissance Festival time.
Our "improved" history repeats itself every
weekend in October and the first two in
November, fifty miles northwest of Houston in
Plantersville, Texas.
