HANOVER COUNTY, VIRGINIA

Hanover County, Virginia, is where rich history meets modern fun—just a short drive north of Richmond! Founded in 1720, this scenic county is best known as the birthplace of American patriot Patrick Henry, and you can still walk in his footsteps at the historic Hanover Courthouse and his beloved home, Scotchtown. But Hanover isn’t just about the past—it’s a place where you can catch thrills at Kings Dominion, sip craft beer at one of several local breweries, or enjoy a day of farm-fresh fun at charming spots like Hanover Vegetable Farm and Ashland Berry Farm. The county’s heart, the town of Ashland, lovingly called “The Center of the Universe,” offers cozy shops, art galleries, and trainside dining that delights visitors year-round. Whether you’re a history buff, foodie, or outdoor adventurer, Hanover County serves up a perfect blend of small-town hospitality, scenic countryside, and vibrant experiences that keep people coming back for more.
