Most Famous Stage in Virginia.


The Most FamousStage in Virginia

The Most FamousStage in Virginia

barter Theatre was founded

on the idea that live theatre

is important to the cultural

life of the community. So

important, in fact, that

when it opened its doors

in the midst of the Great

Depression, patrons could

buy a ticket with produce

or livestock. Eight decades

later, this heritage is

celebrated with at least two

performances a year when

patrons can barter for their

tickets with a donation of

canned goods for an area

food bank.

From its humble beginnings,

Barter eventually became

well-known in theatrical

circles for its commitment

to high-quality productions.

Rising stars such as Gregory

Peck, Ernest Borgnine,

Patricia Neal, Hume Cronyn

and Kevin Spacey have

graced Barter Theatre’s

stage. In 1948, it received

the Antoinette Perry “Tony”

Award for Regional Theatre.

The rich history of Barter

Theatre is reflected in the

beautiful Gilliam Stage, with

its classic proscenium stage

and opulent furnishings, plus

newly renovated lobby.

Barter Theatre’s footprint has

expanded over the years. Across

the street from the main building is

Barter Stage II, which offers a more

intimate setting. With a thrust stage

and seating for 167, the action is

up close and personal. The theatre

has a deep commitment to new

works and Appalachian stories,

as well as programs for students,

helping guarantee a vibrant future for

regional theatre.

As it celebrates its 80th birthday,

Barter Theatre is still the epicenter

of Abingdon’s cultural life, which

also features live music, world-class

museums, galleries and a wide

variety of working artist’s studios.

800-435-3440 · 3

People come from

all over the United

States to see a

performance at the famous Barter

Theatre. Many return year after year to

see new productions and bright young

actors and actresses. Barter Theatre

is truly Abingdon’s most famous

landmark. Even when Virginia’s most

famous stage is quiet, it’s play time

somewhere in Abingdon.

Deciding where to play is up to you.

Outdoor enthusiasts consider the

region a gigantic playground that

offers biking on the Virginia Creeper

Trail, hiking in the mountains, fishing

the rivers and lakes or plenty of scenic

drives on quiet country roads.

Musicians don’t have to be asked

twice if they want to play. The answer

is always “yes” and there are plenty

of places around Abingdon to catch

live music.

If your idea of fun includes retail

therapy and enjoying great food and

beverages with friends, you’re in luck.

Abingdon has lots of unique shops and

locally-owned restaurants to explore.

So day or night; indoors or outdoors;

it’s always play time in abingdon.

Which trail Should you FolloW?We have trails for hiking, biking, driving and even boating. Whether you’re in search of mountain views, bird or wildlife viewing or mountain music, choose one that’s right for your family.


The Virginia Creeper Trail owes its unusual name to the way locals referred to the old steam engines laboring up mountain grades with heavy loads of lumber and iron ore. In every other way, the Virginia Creeper Trail is a delightful way to spend a day in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. This 34-mile scenic trail is filled with charm, scenery and a few surprises.

The multi-purpose trail runs along a

railroad right-of-way that dates back to the

1880s. Today, it is widely considered one

of the finest rails-to-trails examples in the

east. The trail is used by walkers, runners,

horseback riders and lots of bikers. In

Abingdon, the western terminus of the trail,

access couldn’t be any simpler. It’s hard to

miss the restored locomotive on display at

the trailhead on Green Spring Road right in

the middle of town.

The trail has very gentle uphill and downhill

grades between Abingdon and the unofficial

midpoint of Damascus. After that, it climbs

nearly 2000 feet to the eastern terminus on

Whitetop Mountain. Needless to say, most

riders prefer to start on Whitetop and cruise

down. In fact, bike rental shops in Abingdon

and Damascus will shuttle riders to the

top for a modest fee. The easy downhill

ride and the awesome views of the Mount

Rogers area make the Virginia Creeper Trail

a family favorite.

Biking or hiking on the Virginia

Creeper Trail is just one of many

ways to enjoy the outdoors in the

Abingdon area. Great fishing is

available on nearby rivers, streams

and lakes. Abingdon was recently

named an official Appalachian Trail

Community for its commitment to

preserving America’s favorite hiking

trail and for welcoming thru-hikers

with typical southern hospitality.

The Appalachian Trail (AT) through

the nearby Mount Rogers National

Recreation Area offers some of the

most unique terrain in Virginia with

wild ponies grazing on the grassy

bald knobs and views that extend all

the way into North Carolina.

Abingdon is a picturesque ideal Blue

Ridge Mountain town. Its historic

downtown district complete with lots

of unique shops, restaurants and inns

draws visitors from all over the east

coast. But outdoor enthusiasts love

that the mountains offer so many

ways to play and they’re just minutes

from downtown.



Today, the drama in Abingdon plays out on a stage with trained actors. But for hundreds of years, great events and fascinating characters have left an indelible mark on this unique community. For example, if Daniel Boone had his way this visitor guide would be welcoming you to Wolf Hills. From the Native American Great Warriors Path, legends of wolves and Daniel Boone to frontier fort attacks, the oldest English-speaking settlement west of the Blue Ridge is full of history.

Around the time Daniel Boone roamed these woods, early settlers traveled through the region on The Great Road, also known as The Wilderness Road, a migration route for those crossing the mountains to reach the new American frontier. These settlers faced tremendous hardship and harrowing experiences including battles with Native Americans.

The Town of Abingdon was established by Act of the General Assembly in Virginia in 1778. Two short years later, Abingdon played a role in helping the young nation gain its independence. Patriots from Virginia gathered at the Muster Grounds to begin a 220 mile march to Kings Mountain, South Carolina. The ensuing battle was a turning point in the Revolutionary War. The Muster Grounds have been meticulously preserved and today serve as the northern trailhead of the congressionally authorized Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail.

Abingdon’s history is too grand to squeeze into a museum display. Our history lives in the mountains that surround us and in the streets we travel. A 20-block downtown historic district includes many 18th, 19th and early 20th century buildings, including the magnificent Martha Washington Hotel and Spa and Barter Theatre, scene of modern-day drama in Abingdon.

The birthplace of country music is just down the road in Bristol and The Crooked

Road runs right through our town. So, bluegrass and traditional music routinely

fills the air in Abingdon. Catch regular jams at Heartwood or one of many great

festivals throughout the year.

Appalachian Culture

Farming is a proud way of life

in Appalachia. That means

fresh and wholesome products

for local chefs to serve in their

restaurants. The unique “Rooted

in Appalachia” program helps

consumers choose restaurants

and inns that are committed to

supporting local farmers.

Genuine hand made Appalachian

crafts, including pottery, jewelry,

furniture and much more can

be found in local galleries and

working studios around town.

Have you heard about our competitive side? We love the south’s favorite sport — stock

car racing. Nearby Bristol Motor Speedway seats 155,000

cheering fans to watch the biggest names in motorsports

race for the checkered flag

in the Spotlight


Rarely is art as woven into the fabric of a community as generously as it is in Abingdon. Perhaps the arts scene thrives here because of the inspiration drawn from the beauty of the mountains or the history that surrounds us. One thing is certain, the museums, galleries and working studios throughout the town enrich our lives every single day.

Some historic hotels tell their story through the photos and antiques displayed around the property. At The Martha, when you walk through the front door you might actually believe you’ve stepped back in time to the 19th century. The fine touches and tasteful décor make you feel as if you’re entering a stately old home. Indeed, you are. The Martha was built in 1832 as a private residence for General Francis Preston and Sarah Buchanan Preston and their nine children. The original living room is now the main lobby.

The Martha Washington Hotel and Spa has a rich history that includes good times and bad. In 1858, the Preston family home was purchased and turned into an upscale college for young women. It was named Martha Washington College in honor of the first lady of our nation, though it was affectionately called “The Martha” by locals.

The Martha first opened as a hotel in 1935. It has changed ownership and management a few times since then, but all have maintained the architectural and historic integrity of the original structure. The Martha is known for impeccable service and its world-class spa treatments.

The Martha is Abingdon’s most famous hotel and a treasured landmark. It’s part of the extraordinary tradition of hospitality that can be found at hotels and unique inns all around town. Numerous Bed & Breakfast Inns are located throughout the downtown district. Well-known brand name hotels and even quaint rental cabins round out the lodging options in Abingdon.
