Fairfax Station is a historic community located in Fairfax County, Virginia, approximately 20 miles southwest of Washington, D.C. The area gained significance during the American Civil War when its railroad station, part of the Orange and Alexandria Railroad, played a crucial role in both military operations and civilian life.
The station was notably used as an evacuation point for wounded soldiers during the Second Battle of Bull Run in 1862, where Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross, provided medical assistance. Today, Fairfax Station is a primarily residential community that preserves its historical heritage through sites like the Fairfax Station Railroad Museum, which documents the area's railroad and Civil War history. The community maintains a semi-rural character despite its proximity to the Washington metropolitan area, with several parks and natural areas contributing to its cultural landscape.
