Plaque Text:
Taylor's bandstand dates back to 1910, serving as a gathering spot for community celebrations and live performances until it was dismantled and removed in the 1960s. A replica bandstand was placed in Heritage Square during the founding during the Texas Sesquicentennial Celebration of 1986. The replica was a gift from Mr. & Mrs. Herbert J. Stoll in memory of John Stoll, Jr., Louis Stoll and Albert Schroeder, who left a legacy of music as members of Taylor's City Bank from 1908-1918. The bandstand was reconditioned and placed here in its new location as part of the 2018 Heritage Square renovation.
