Pilot Point, Texas - History
Pilot Point, Texas is a historic North Texas town founded in the mid 1800s as an agricultural and trading community. Named after nearby Pilot Knob, a landmark for early settlers, the town grew quickly with the arrival of the railroad and its role along major cattle routes.
Today, Pilot Point blends its rich history with small town charm, featuring a preserved downtown, strong ranching and equestrian roots, and continued growth within Denton County and the greater Dallas Fort Worth area.
