Rustburg sits in Virginia’s Piedmont in the United States, where rolling uplands create a rural inland setting south of Lynchburg. The town is the seat of Campbell County, giving its compact center a civic role beyond its size. Farms, woodland and small communities shape the surrounding area rather than continuous urban development. During the Civil War, the Battle of Rustburg was fought here on 24 June 1864, when Union and Confederate cavalry met as Union forces moved through the region. The Blue Ridge Mountains rise farther west beyond the Piedmont. Browse nearby webcams to see how Rustburg relates to Lynchburg and the wider Virginia Piedmont.
