2026 TTT Poster



For one extraordinary day, the gates of Old Greenwood Cemetery open not just to visitors…but to history itself.

The Silent Citizens who rest beneath Weatherford’s oldest stones will rise once more—
their voices clear, their stories fierce, their lives unfolding in the very place they were laid to rest. Heroes, scoundrels, pioneers, and forgotten souls step out of the shadows to speak their truth.

Walk the winding paths.
Stand face‑to‑face with the past.
Witness the moment when the dead refuse to stay silent.

One day only. One chance to hear them.
Be there when Weatherford’s history comes alive.






Comte Paul de Bresson Stable

Bresson Stable


The Comte Paul de Bresson Stable is a Rare Glimpse of French Heritage in North Texas.  Built in the late 19th century probably by French stone masons who crafted the iconic Parker County Courthouse and United Methodist Church, this stable is the last remaining example of French country architecture in our region.  It's stone walls and elegant design uniquely testify to Parker County's international roots and remind us that our area was a crossroads for global commerce and culture even in its early years.
