| | The Greenbrier |
 | | The Greenbrier is perhaps the oldest and the most historic resort in the United States, going back to 1778 when Amanda Anderson, a rheumatism sufferer, was carried to some Allegheny Mountain sulphur springs in what was then the state of Virginia. |
 | | Its place in U.S. history has filled a book, The Greenbrier: Americas Resort, and is built upon its experiences through the Civil War and Reconstruction, the Gilded Age, World War II and the Cold War era. |
 | | The Greenbrier has hosted 25 U.S. presidents beginning with James Monroe, was a vacation haven for 19th-century notables such as former Confederate General Robert E. Lee, served as an internment center for captive Axis diplomats in 1941 and 1942 and as a military hospital in both the Civil War and World War II. |
