Castle on the Medina history unearthed by Banks and Wisdom
Historians C Stanley Banks and R C Wisdom revisit the Medina crossing near Von Ormy to trace the Castle on the Medina. They chronicle Enoch Jones, a Texas pioneer who built a grand San Antonio home with elaborate plumbing and outbuildings, later sold to Count Norbert Von Ormay whose brief stay ended mysteriously. The piece traces earlier occupants from Spanish era figures to a Texas Ranger and Perez, pondering the site’s evolving purpose from fortress to dream home to memory.
