BASTROP COUNTY COURTHOUSE
Bastrop county was created in 1836 and organized in 1837. It is one of the
historic old counties of the state and has played an important role in the develop-
ment of Texas. This county contributed men and means to the success of Texas’
struggle for independence and through the one hundred years that have elapsed
since that historic struggle, Bastrop county people have taken a prominent part
in making Texas the great state it is today.
