Abbeville SC

Abbeville is a taste of yesteryear with it's cobblestone main
square and historic architecture is like a travel in time back
to the old south. The courthouse on the square once belonged to
Revolutionary war leader Andrew Pickens.It also was the site that
John C. Calhoun launched his political career. If you love history
and or have a fascination with ghosts you will enjoy the annual
"Ghost Walk" Abbeville is said to have numerous tales of old
homes and buildings inhabited by what they say can only be
ghosts of the past.

Many "road companies" toured from New
York to Atlanta, with the Opera House as
an overnight stop. Between 1908 and 1913,
Abbevillians enjoyed approximately 260 live
performances on the magnificent Opera
House Stage today the Opera House is fully
restored to its turn-of-the-century condition
with two exceptions - the addition of air
conditioning and rocking chair seats. Listed
on the National Register of Historic
Places, the theater uses the same rope
pulled rigging systems as in 1908, and is the
only "Hemphouse" remaining in South
Carolina.
