There are many locations of historical significance in the four state region some of which are more obscure than others. In Winchester, Virginia alone, it boasts the original site of Fort Loudon, George Washington's Headquarters (pictured above), Stonewall Jackson's Headquarters, and Abram's Delight to just name a few. Not to mention, the city of Winchester changed hands 72 times during the Civil War.
Other locations in the area include Harper's Ferry (self explanatory), the original cabin (albeit reconstructed) of the first settler of the area Morgan Morgan, Belle Boyd's house, the location of the battle of Antietam in Sharpsburg, Maryland, the grave of Lincoln body guard Ward Lamon, etc.
