Staunton, Augusta County, Virginia, is the birthplace of Woodrow Wilson and has one architectural advantage over most other small southern towns: it escaped the Civil War unscathed. Many Staunton-Augusta historic homes that were built in the 18th and 19th century still stand and are wonderfully preserved.

These historic homes are readily viewable in the well-loved Downtown and Main Street areas. But almost any drive into the Augusta countryside will also reveal vistas featuring magnificent residences that have been painstakingly restored.
