Culture & Community

Summer Events

With rolling mountains, farm-dotted fields, and historic downtowns, Rockbridge County makes an awesome first impression. But there's more to this community than a pretty face.

Downtown Charm

Stop for the history, stay for the hospitality. And the live music. The art galleries. The indie coffee shops. The farm-to-table fare. And a few quirky but loveable grumps.

Shop Local

Stores in downtown Lexington embrace the "Shop Local" credo with gusto.

Eat Fresh

And how do locals eat? With gusto! They also eat like royalty, with field-fresh produce, homegrown beef, and artisanal breads and jams. Innovative chefs serve it up with flair.

Wineries & Breweries

Is this best day of my life, you ask? It could be. But a brew with a view, a glass of Virginia wine, or a well-crafted cocktail might make it even better.

Offbeat Rockbridge

As the saying goes, Southerners don’t hide their oddball relatives in the basement, they trot ‘em onto the front porch for all to see. To put it politely, Rockbridge County has a mighty big porch.
