"So Much of Our Future Lies in Preserving Our Past." Peter Westbrook

Fought in the second week of June 1863, Brandy Station was the largest cavalry battle ever fought in North America.

The Brandy Station Foundation is a 501(c)-3 non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the natural and historic resources of the Brandy Station area of Culpeper County, Virginia.

While our focus is toward the Civil War history of the Brandy Station vicinity, our efforts are not limited to that time period or by any geographic boundaries.  We have been instrumental in the preservation of significant tracts of land related to the Battle of Brandy Station (June 9, 1863) and Kelly’s Ford (March 17, 1863).  We operate the Graffiti House, which serves as our visitor center and museum.

Our goal is to ensure the history and heritage of the area is not “paved over” in our rush to progress.  Toward that end, Brandy Station Foundation has strong working partnerships in the community and with like-minded organizations.

The John Pelham Monument located on our Brandy Station Foundation grounds needs restorative maintance.  We have been quoted $750 to properly clean and restore the monument to its original condition.  The Pelham monument is in honor of John Pelham who was mortally wounded in the Battle of Kelly's Ford.  John Pelham , 1838-1863, was one of the most noted Confederate Artillery Officers of the Civil War.
