Petersburg, Virginia is a small city located 23 miles south of Richmond, on the Appomattox River. Petersburg is steeped in history, and much of it is exhibited at the town's parks and museums. Many battles were fought on Petersburg's soil, and if you get a chance to visit, you can literally stand on the same ground that Civil War soldiers fought on.

The High Street Inn

The High Street Inn is an elegant bed and breakfast located in an old Queen Anne Mansion that was built around 1891. The classic, ornate decor makes you feel like you're walking into the 19th century. The six rooms are individually furnished and almost all of them come with their own fireplace and sitting area. The inn is conveniently located within walking distance of Petersburg's shops, restaurants and Civil War attractions.
