This library and museum located in town has an impressive permanent collection of sporting life art and library primarily donated by Paul Mellon, a local philanthropist. It also hosts temporary exhibitions by notable international and well known local artists. The collections are thorough without being overwhelming, and a perfect place to spend a rainy morning or afternoon.

Historic Middleburg is a great place to spend the day walking around, but this museum is worth stopping in. Loudoun County has a rich history in equestrian sports and hunting, and this museum details the past. There is also a one-of-a-kind Christmas Parade in Middleburg each December that looks straight out of the old fox hunting days.
