About
A presidential and cultural museum that features the Presidents Room, Black History Exhibit Room, a small gallery and a Temporary Exhibit Room. In the Presidents Room you will enjoy artifacts of Madison, Jefferson, Monroe and Z. Taylor. The Black History Room has 3 themes (Forgotten Patriots, Atlantic Slave Trade and Post-Emancipation). The biggest surprise for nearly every visitor is the large Hall of Agriculture and Transportation. In this large wing sits a 1730's house originally built for Gov. Alexander Spotswood for a tenant farm in Orange; a 1924 Model T and horse-drawn conveyances as well as a myriad of farm implements and items used during pre-mechanized farm life. Groups are welcome.

We are planning a trip in late September. Are masks still required? The webpage was not specific. Thank you.

My apologies for the lateness of my response. We leave the wearing of masks up to our guests as they are comfortable. If someone is symptomatic or ill, we ask they not visit until they are healthier. Should you have any further questions of a timely nature, please call us at (540) 672-1776. Thank you and have a safe journey.
