campbell station inn
The Town purchased the Campbell Station Inn and the surrounding 2.26 acres in 2012 because of the site's rich history and prominent location. Phase 3 of the renovation of the property, the creation of Mayor Ralph McGill Plaza, was completed in late 2020. It is available for public rental.
The next phase of improvements will be deciding on a future use for the inn and restoring the interior to suit the new use. Feedback for the future use of the inn was solicited from the public via two open houses and social media in winter of 2019.
farragut memorial plaza
Dedicated in 2010, the Farragut Memorial Plaza features a life-plus sized bronze statue of Admiral David Farragut, Civil War era cannons on loan from the U.S. Naval Yard, and historical markers with information about Farragut's life. A Civil War Trails Historical Marker on the grounds of Farragut Town Hall commemorates the Battle of Campbell Station, which was fought on surrounding land on Nov. 16, 1863.
