Get to Know the Austin Woman's Club
The Austin Woman's Club purchased the 11,000 square foot Chateau Bellevue (then known as the "Old North Castle") in 1929 for $36,000 and has been maintaining its preservation for close to 100 years! The Austin Woman's Club was built on faith and a constant awareness of women’s responsibility in the molding of a city’s culture. Founded in 1929, the mission of the
Austin Woman’s Club is to preserve the historical and architectural heritage of the North-Evans Chateau (Chateau Bellevue) and to serve the public through community service, including educational, civic and social activities.
