History of Pearl Stable

San Antonio architect Otto Kramer designed Pearl Stable.  It was built in 1894, the same year as the extravagantly Gothic landmark Brew House.  Like the Brew House, the Stable reflects a Victorian love of grandeur and ornament.  It was a barn, but its graceful elliptical shape and intricate brickwork show that it was also the Brewery’s symbol of affluence and success.
