The arts are thriving in Lexington! Stop by The Bob Timberlake Gallery and Museum, Dempsey's Place or Missions Pottery to check out the local art scene.

Lexington's incorporation as a city in 1828 makes it the home of several North Carolina historical attractions. Visitors can visit the Davidson County Historical Museum, located inside the Court House on Main Street, the numerous Civil War Trail Markers located throughout the city (check out this map to visit them all), or the Lexington Candy Factory for a taste of the city's history. 

The city is also home to several popular wineries, most notably Childress Vineyards and Weathervane Winery.
