Old Bakery

Old Bakery 

Another century old building downtown, the left half of this building at 824 Water Street was erected in 1890 for a feed store. It was later converted to a bakery known as the Kerrville Bakery, by J. O. Ahnert.   C. W. Wolfmueller bought it in 1922 and expanded the bakery. It expanded again later when Ike Huber owned the business.

After Mr. Ahnert sold the building, the following appeared in the Kerrville Mountain Sun of February 25, 1922,  “John Ahnert left again for Dallas in search of another bakery opening.  He bitterly regrets having relinquished Kerrville, because he can hardly find another Texas town with as good a school as ours.”
