The Magnolia Hotel & Spa company history timeline

1844

During the Republic of Texas, a two-room log cabin in Seguin, Texas, sheltered travelers on the frontier as early as 1844, and became known as the Magnolia Hotel.

1846

The Magnolia's limecrete section was built by John Park, a chemist and doctor who experimented with concrete after moving to Seguin in 1846.

1854

Park's concrete building was next to a two-room cabin built of logs originally gathered by Seguin citizens to build a stockade as defense against possible Indian raids. It shows graceful Greek Revival symmetry and detailing around the door, and a roof line similar to that of the concrete house known as Sebastopol built 1854–56.

2012

The building fell into disrepair, leading Preservation Texas to list it among the state's "Most Endangered Historic Places" in March 2012.

2013

On March 1, 2013, Jim Ghedi and Erin O Wallace-Ghedi purchased the building and have privately funded the restoration bringing it back to its original state.
