Brookneal

Few towns in southern Virginia have a history as closely tied to the tobacco trade as Brookneal. Set on the Staunton River in Campbell County, it developed as a local commercial centre for the surrounding agricultural country. Its compact downtown retains older storefronts and civic buildings that recall the period when tobacco shaped the economy of this part of Virginia. The Virginia Tobacco Heritage Trail also connects Brookneal with the region’s railroad and farming legacy, inviting a slower exploration of the countryside.
