Panna Maria, TX 78144

The Panna Maria Visitor's Center in Karnes City, TX is a historic site that showcases the oldest permanent Polish settlement in the United States. Established in 1854, this area was settled by Polish immigrants who celebrated their first Mass under an oak tree. The center features a restored Catholic church, Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, along with other historic buildings that are part of the Panna Maria Historic District.

Managed by the Panna Maria Historical Society, the center aims to preserve and educate visitors about the rich Polish heritage and the important role Panna Maria played in Texas history. With its 25 historic structures and 3,500 acres of land, the district offers a glimpse into the past and serves as a testament to the faith, family, and community values that still resonate in the town today.

We came here after a service that was held at the church. The people were very nice. They sold delicious confections and had some lovely mementos as well!
