Welcome to Abbeville

Abbeville, SC, is known as the “Birthplace and Deathbed of the Confederacy,” and claims John C Calhoun as a native son! Secession Hill, the meeting which launched the state’s secession from the Union, took place on Nov. 22, 1860. Today, time seems to stand still in the downtown square. Its paved roads leading into town turn to brick streets, which slows down traffic to help you savor Abbeville’s distinct character and appeal. Its “Rainbow Row” of colorful buildings, dating back more than a hundred years, perfectly frames Trinity Episcopal Church, a tall, pink-hued, gothic-style cathedral built just before the Civil War.

Abbeville’s Historic Downtown, known locally as the square, offers Abbeville’s Opera House where thousands of patrons attend sell out shows each year, the Burt-Stark Mansion for South Carolina history, Rough House famous Hot Dogs, The Village Grill, Two Brew’s, Swartzentrubers Bakery, Main street coffee, Natty’s on Trinity, Talk of the town eatery, Theo’s Deli and seafood, Indigenous Underground, for lunch or dinner, Urban 2 Country for vintage keepsakes, Calhoun Falls State Park, Lake Secession or Lake Russell for recreation and The Belmont Inn or Veranda on Main to rest after a busy day of exploring.
