This is a great historical experience. The property is meticulously maintained and has a great view of the city. It's a prime spot for watching the July 4 fireworks and for watching both sunrise and sunsets because of its south panoramic views.
WeekdayNo waitNo

Beautiful historic building overlooking downtown Lynchburg! Be sure to notice the "carpet" in the foyer that is really made from heavy duty oil cloth, which was handpainted to resemble tile! Just gorgeous interior!
