Bulverde, Texas has been called “The Front Porch of the Texas Hill Country.” The original residents of this area were Native Americans. In fact, there is an arrowhead called the Bulverde Point, named for the style that the Native Americans shaped it into when they lived here, between 2500 to 600 BC. It was first settled by Europeans in 1850. It was predominantly a settlement of German immigrants but expanded as more people moved into the area. Between 1996 and 1999, five municipalities were incorporated and combined together to create the City of Bulverde.
