No city limit signs are posted in Luckenbach because they’re stolen as fast as they’re planted in the hamlet made famous by country singers Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings. The cowboy town consists of an 1849 general store with a post office, a blacksmith shop, a saloon, and cultural events such as armadillo races, an annual hug-in, a hunt for the first mud dauber each spring, and the July 4th picnic, often attended by Nelson. Luckenbach is about 10 miles southeast of Fredricksburg (pop. 8,911).
