EXPLORE HISTORIC CLIFTON
Slow Down for a Little While
Historic Clifton feels remarkably removed from the surrounding Northern Virginia suburbs. Originally known as Devereux Station, the town grew around the railroad during and after the Civil War. Today, historic homes, white picket fences, locally owned businesses, and reminders of Clifton's railroad past give the town its distinctive character.
Clifton is recognized as a historic district on both the Virginia Landmarks Register and National Register of Historic Places. Take a leisurely stroll down Main Street, browse local businesses, enjoy the historic architecture, and see some of the landmarks that tell Clifton's story.
Look For
The Red Caboose
The bright red Southern Railway caboose marks the site of the original Devereux Station and has become one of Clifton's most recognizable landmarks.
Historic Main Street
Walk past historic homes, small businesses, churches, and buildings that have been part of Clifton for generations.
The Clifton General Store
A classic small-town general store and local gathering place housed in the same historic building as Main Street Pub.
Historic Homes & Architecture
Many of Clifton's homes date to the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The town's historic district has helped preserve much of its distinctive character.
Clifton's Railroad History
The railroad played a central role in Clifton's development. The town grew from the former Devereux Station and became a popular retreat from Washington after the Civil War.
A Little Clifton Trivia
Clifton has been affectionately called the “Brigadoon of Virginia” because of its unusually preserved small-town character. The town has also attracted an impressive list of visitors and residents over the years, including presidents, politicians, writers, and performers. Actress Helen Hayes frequently spent summers here, and screenwriter Jeff Arch wrote Sleepless in Seattle while living in a house on Main Street.
