The bequest of retired Lynchburg school teacher, Katharine Garland Diggs, to create a museum that preserves "the customs and ways of life of the city" have enabled the restoration of Point of Honor. The Lynchburg Historical Foundation, the Diggs Trust, the Garden Club of Virginia and the City of Lynchburg pooled their resources and today her vision has been fully realized. Point of Honor’s interpretive tours and innovative programs bring the region’s rich heritage to life for the enjoyment and education of thousands of visitors every year.
School Tours
Customized school and group tours based on Virginia's Standards of Learning are available at special rates and can be combined with other local attractions—please contact the museum at (434) 455.6226 to set up your visit! Bus parking and picnic areas are available.
