Middleburg today is one of the most picturesque towns in northern Virginia.  Many buildings in town were used as hospitals during battles in the area and can still be visited today. Historical markers on Madison Street and the Plains Road will help you to understand the military history of the town. Middleburg is the center of the John Singleton Mosby Heritage Area, and an interpretive center at the Rector House 4 miles west of town tells the story of Mosby's Rangers.
