About Strasburg, Virginia

Strasburg is a town of 7,083 people in Shenandoah County, at the northern end of the Shenandoah Valley, and it is the largest town in the county. On August 21, 1734, Lieutenant Governor William Gooch granted 2,030 acres here to the speculator Henry Willis. Gooch hoped settlers in the Valley would shield the rest of the colony from Native American tribes. Willis sold all of the land to Jacob Funk in the summer of 1735, and Funk resold part of it to his brother John.

German-speaking families from Pennsylvania came to farm the fertile bottomland along the Shenandoah River, and they built family farms rather than plantations. Peter Stover, born in Germany in 1715, bought 483 acres from Jacob Funk on May 2, 1749, and divided it into lots for other settlers. In November 1761 Stover applied for a town charter, and the village officially became Strasburg, named for Strasbourg in Alsace. Some people called it Staufferstadt, German for Stoverstown.

“The Queen Street School, one of the first schools in Shenandoah County for African Americans, had opened in Strasburg by 1875.”

  • Known as Pot TownStrasburg's potters turned out both everyday and fancy earthenware and stoneware, which earned the town the nickname Pot Town. The Strasburg Stone and Earthenware Manufacturing Company once worked out of the building that now holds the Strasburg Museum. The building later served as a Southern Railway depot until the early 1960s, opened as a museum in 1970, and is on the National Register.
  • Stover's gift for schoolsPeter Stover, the town's founder, gave generously through most of his life. He died on August 13, 1799, at 84, and in his will he set aside land and $10,000 so the community could open schools. A monument in Riverview Cemetery honors him, though no one knows where his grave is.
  • Apple Orchard, 1938Sarah Jane Blakeslee won a commission from the United States Treasury Section of Fine Arts and in 1938 finished a New Deal mural called Apple Orchard for Strasburg's post office. The painting is still inside the historic building.
  • Caverns at Hupp's HillCrystal Caverns at Hupp's Hill drew visitors from 1922 to 2010. The Stonewall Jackson Museum there later closed, and the Cedar Creek Battlefield Foundation rebuilt it, renaming it the Hupp's Hill Cedar Creek Museum when it reopened on May 7, 2011.
