Mission -
To preserve and protect the historic and natural
resources of Spotsylvania County through education,
advocacy and community involvement.
The Spotsylvania Preservation Foundation Inc. (SPFI) of
Virginia was established in 1988
to help preserve and protect Spotsylvania County's
natural and historic resources. We are concerned with
the preservation of natural habitats, archaeological sites, historical
landscapes and structures of historical and architectural
significance. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit all-volunteer organization,
we are steadfast in our goal of ensuring the perpetuity of these
assets so that future generations may enjoy and learn from them.
SPFI was instrumental in the formation of the Spotsylvania
Historic Preservation Commission, the Preservation Ordinance,
and the Historic Overlay District. We
encourage citizens to
study the county's rich heritage and develop an interest in
preserving historic resources throughout the county. SPFI is
currently restoring the "Spotsylvania Jail" (left), built at the Court
House in 1855, for development as a museum featuring the jail and its
role in Spotsylvania history.
To learn more about SPFI, our projects and scheduled events, contact us at
