'It's All Still Here in Washington County' More than 250 years of history await visitors to a true regional crossroads. Just as Washington is situated as a perfect launching point for the Civil War experience at Antietam, Harpers Ferry and Gettysburg ... it is also at the crossroads of I-81 and I-70, connecting the Washington DC/Richmond region with central Virginia and western Pennsylvania. Visit any Hagerstown/Washington County Convention and Visitor's Bureau Tourist Information Center and you'll discover the Crossroads of the Civil War...and more!
