Virginia's Historic Treasures

Virginia's landscape serves as a living museum, featuring sites from several eras of American history. This collection includes Thomas Jefferson’s neoclassical Monticello and the towering stone obelisk of the Washington Monument. It preserves pivotal military landmarks like the Petersburg National Battlefield and the National D-Day Memorial. Visitors can explore maritime history through the Cape Henry Lighthouses and the Portsmouth Lightship Museum, or walk through well-preserved 18th and 19th-century architecture in the historic districts of Leesburg and Portsmouth.
