Civil War Weekend.
September 16 - 18, 2005.

The Frederick County Courthouse served as a prison and often a hospital over the course of the war.  Immediately after the Third Battle of Winchester, it functioned as both. 

Visitors today can still see the graffiti left by the building’s unfortunate residents.  This weekend, re-enactors and living historians will show visitors soldiers’ life in and around the old courthouse.  Soldiers will be camped in the courtyard. Inside, surgeons and hospital staff will treat wounded Confederate and Union soldiers in the courtroom.
