History Trail, Train, & Tours
Check out Centreville's former bustling Main Street district via scavenger hunt, train rides, walking tours, and guided tours of historic buildings.
Looking for something different? Visit St. John's Episcopal Church for a historically accurate colonial-era service... prayer for the king is optional.
Ghost Tour
At 2 PM, leave the bustle of Centreville Day behind for a short guided walk through the historic district and hear some of the town’s
stranger, darker, and more mysterious stories from the past.
This isn’t a haunted-house attraction and we can’t promise any actual ghosts. What you will get is about 40 minutes of local history with a spooky twist, told in the very places where some of those stories began.
The walk starts in front of the
Spindle Sears House and covers about
½ mile over gentle grades.
Vendor Village
Meet local artists, crafters, businesses, clubs, causes, public services, and beyond.
