Return to the Exchange Hotel



I had toured the Exchange Hotel on a field trip last year but Frank had never seen it. I wanted to show it to him so a week ago we drove to Gordsonsville (Virginia). A docent gave us a tour and even allowed us to handle selected artifacts.

Displays show the story of the hotel and the nearby railroad. The upper level is devoted to the use of the building as a hospital during the Civil War.
