Summary

Significance: The Cat Spring Agricultural Society (founded 1856) built its pavilion in 1902 to provide the prospering German community with a permanent dance and meeting hall. The twelve sided structure is one of several polygonal social halls to be found in this area of Texas. Members of the society built the hall from architectural drawings by Joch Hintz. ... Architecturally distinguished by its structural form and great size, the Cat Spring Agricultural Pavilion continues to serve the oldest agricultural society in Texas.
