Dranesville Tavern, Greek Revival tavern in Fairfax County, Virginia, United States.
The Dranesville Tavern features three connected log sections and brown sandstone chimneys along the former Leesburg Turnpike transportation route.
Built in 1823, the tavern served as a stopping point for travelers and teamsters journeying between Alexandria, Leesburg, and Winchester during the 19th century.
The structure represents one of the few remaining examples of rural Virginia inns that provided accommodation to the public in the 1800s.
The Fairfax County Park Authority maintains the tavern as a rental facility, allowing visitors to experience a preserved piece of transportation history.
In 1968, the entire building was moved 130 feet from its original location to prevent its destruction during the expansion of Route 7.
