Once home to the wealthiest merchants in San Antonio, the King William Historic District is where you will find preserved and historic Victorian-Era homes. Most homes are lived in by their current residents, while a few have been converted into shops and cafes, offering a stylish experience and fostering educational, recreational, and cultural activities. Take a stroll and enjoy any of the four self-guided walking tours, the King William Area Walking Tour, Along the Acequia Walking Tour, Along the Acequia Concepción, and Along the Acequia Madre.
Experience, enjoy, and remember your loved ones on Dia de Los Muertos, where family and friends gather to pay their respects and remember those who have passed on with dancing, music, art, and good food. Remembrances include family visits to the local cemetery, processions through town squares, and inventive homemade altars honoring departed family members with photos, sweet bread, and flowers.
