Leave a comment

Winchester went back and forth between the Union and Confederacy at least 72 times during the Civil War. While Fort Loudoun was being built, George Washington used an office in Winchester for around one year. James Wood, a former Governor of Virginia, lived in Winchester and his impact can still be felt today. Two of the local schools are named after him.
