About
The Caldwell County Courthouse commands the Lockhart square with the kind of Romanesque Revival confidence that makes location scouts stop mid-drive. Built in 1894 and listed as a Texas State Landmark, the red sandstone structure rises above a classic courthouse square lined with Victorian commercial buildings—a near-perfect small-town Texas tableau. Lockhart is a Film Friendly Texas community, which means a trained liaison, streamlined permitting, and locals who understand what a film crew needs. The surrounding square offers period storefronts with minimal modern signage, making it a go-to for productions needing authentic 19th or early 20th century Texas atmosphere. The town's famous BBQ joints are a bonus for cast and crew alike.
