Weatherford is a beautiful city in Parker County, Texas that was originally founded in 1854. Following the development of railroads in the region in the late 19th century, the city became known as a major cattle drive site after the implementation of the Goodnight-Loving Trail, which inspired the famed novel Lonesome Dove. Today, the city is known for its stunning preserved historic buildings, which showcase excellent examples of Queen Anne and Victorian-style architecture. Each year, the city hosts the Parker County Peach Festival, which is one of Texas' most-attended annual festivals. CDC information for travelers. Hours/availability may have changed.
