Book for dances, parties, or just come out and have a few drinks and dance the night away! =) Jalufka and Jakob Hollub brought their families to northern Lavaca County in 1874, followed by several other Czech families. Founded in 1881, Moravia was so named to honor Moravia, Czechoslovakia, the settlers' homeland. The first commercial structures here were a blacksmith shop, cotton gin, and school.

In 1889 Jalufka built a two-story frame saloon on this site. Grocery and mercantile supplies took up the rear half of the ground floor; the saloon was located in the front. Masquerades, seasonal celebrations and other events made it a popular gathering place for the entire community. From 1891 to 1900 Jalufka also was United States Postmaster for the area, operating the post office from his store. The saloon was popular and successful until 1920, the year that J. Jalufka died and prohibition was passed into law. Agnes Jalufka inherited the business, and sold it to Annie Chromcak and Lillian Blahuta in 1922. Annie Chromcak sold her interest to Lillian and Frank Blahuta the following year. In 1930, a new dance hall was erected across the road. The second story was torn down, leaving the one-story Moravia General Store. The new dance hall across the road was torn down in 1950. The Moravia store remained in the Blahuta family until 1979. In 1990 the store was closed for the first time in 109 years. In 1996, Moravia Store was reopened and is still ran under the ownership of Henrietta Filip. The Moravia General Store remains a link to the past and to the spirit of the pioneers of Lavaca County.

Henrietta & Valerie visited the National Military Memorial today in Washington.D.C. and stand among the names of those who served and sacrificed is such a meaningful thing, Valerie being one of them & Billy Ling being one as well!❤️🇺🇸
So many names, so many stories, and so many families forever changed by the bravery of those who served our country. It’s a beautiful reminder that freedom comes at a cost, and that we should never forget the men and women who paid it.
Its a proud moment, taking the time to visit, remember, and honor our heroes. 🇺🇸❤️
Never forgotten. Forever honored.
