Use the menu at the top to alphabetically browse through some of the iconic and eccentric lives that have shaped four centuries of Rockbridge History: artists and educators; generals and governors; saviors and streakers; businesswomen, con men, and preachers.

If you’re in downtown Lexington, you can also ‘walk the trail’ of historic paver stones lining the sidewalks on Main, Washington, and Nelson Streets, using the sequential guides in the menu above.

We hope these ‘Story Stones’ – and the digital tales that accompany them – will not only enlighten and extend, but enliven your sense of local history.
