Sachse was founded by William Sachse, a Prussian immigrant, in 1845. Notable descendents of Sachse include Russell Ingram, center for the 1973 Atlanta Falcons. Purchasing 640 acres from Collin County, Sachse erected the first cotton mills and 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. Fallfest, an annual event that draws over 10,000 people from surrounding areas, is an annual arts and crafts country fair.
