Welcome to Sachse
Sachse is both in Collin and Dallas counties in north central Texas. It is a suburb of Dallas northeast about 15 miles from the Reunion Tower. The 2010 census reported the city population was 20,329.
Sachse is approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) north of the President George Bush Turnpike (Texas State Highway 190) and Firewheel Town Center, located on Texas State Highway 78. The Turnpike was recently extended from SH-78 through Rowlett across Lake Ray Hubbard to Interstate Highway 30 (also called US Highway 67).
Sachse is also home to the Woodbridge Golf Course. The Northern Texas Chapter of the PGA calls the 18-hole Woodbridge Golf Course home.
Sachse was founded in 1845 by William Sachse, a Prussian immigrant. Purchasing 640 acres (a square mile or 259 hectares) from Collin County, Sachse erected the first cotton mills and cotton gins in the county. There is currently a major historical revivalist movement, intending to restore several old buildings as well as create a local history museum.
