Greenbrier County, Administrative county in southern West Virginia, United States.
Greenbrier County is an administrative county in southern West Virginia covering mountains, rivers, and forests in the Allegheny Mountains region. The landscape features rolling terrain shaped by multiple waterways and dense woodland coverage.
The county was established in 1778 from portions of Montgomery and Botetourt counties. It became foundational territory from which eleven additional West Virginia counties were later created.
The annual State Fair of West Virginia takes place here with agricultural exhibits, local crafts, music performances, and traditional food. Visitors experience the region's culture and traditions firsthand through these gatherings.
Interstate 64 connects the eastern and western sections, while US Routes 219 and 60 intersect in the county seat of Lewisburg. These main roads provide straightforward access for exploring different parts of the region.
A Cold War-era bunker lies beneath The Greenbrier hotel, built to shelter Congress during potential nuclear conflicts. This hidden facility reflects the geopolitical tensions of that period.
