Schuyler Historic District

The Schuyler Historic District spans 563.9 acres with 138 primary resources including Renaissance Revival architecture buildings and eight soapstone quarries.

The district developed from the 1840s through mid-20th century, establishing itself as a central industrial community with multiple quarries supporting regional economic growth.

Executive Row residences positioned on a bluff overlooking the soapstone company represent the social structure of this industrial community during its development.

Visitors can explore the district at the intersection of Schuyler Road, Salem Road, and Rockfish River Road, examining structures from different architectural periods.

The district contains sixteen soapstone quarries, with eight located within Schuyler and eight additional sites positioned just beyond the Albemarle County boundary.
