What craftsmanship went into building this house? You are standing before the Schulze-Schilo House Plaque. This plaque commemorates a house built in 1891 by Carl Schulze, a German craftsman who came to San Antonio in the late 1880s. He and his brother Otto were renowned homebuilders in the city. The Schulze-Schilo House served as Carl’s residence with his wife Agathe until 1896. The house later belonged to Fritz and Laura Schilo, who opened Schilo’s delicatessen in 1917. You can still feel the legacy of craftsmanship in the home’s design. It showcases an eclectic mix of styles, featuring Eastlake millwork on the front gable, a testament to the skills of its builder. The Schulze-Schilo House Plaque reminds us of the enduring impact of dedicated artisans like Carl Schulze, whose work continues to shape the landscape of San Antonio.
