Visit Point of Honor and discover the charm and surroundings of life in the early 1800’s. A tour of this remarkable Federal style home, with its classic architecture and rich furnishings, echoes true grace and southern hospitality. The recreated hearth kitchen offers insight into the adventure and struggle of daily chores at this once 750 acre plantation. A fascinating exhibit explores medicine as practiced by the original owner and builder of the home, Dr. George Cabell, whose patients included American patriot Patrick Henry. Save time to walk the gardens, or shop the Carriage House Gift Shop.

Point of Honor offers guided tours of the historic house and grounds every Saturday morning at 10:00 a.m. Group tours may also be scheduled at other times by appointment depending on staff availability. Please call (434) 455-6226 or email museum@lynchburgva.gov

The four-acre grounds of Point of Honor remain open to the general public every day of the year from dawn to dusk. We welcome your visit!

What a beautiful place. I'm new in town, but this was first on my places-to-see. The property is immaculately maintained, and everyone from the gift shop to the docents was incredibly pleasant. I think it was $6.00 for a tour; my guides were patient and knowledgable. Everything in the house is time-period, though most is not from the original families. Still, there's some interesting local pieces on display. Can't wait to come back with my family and show off this local history!
