Reynolda Village offers shopping experience
CHRONIC! I. STAFF RKPORT
One of the most beautiful places to
enjoy a meal and shop in Winston-Salem is
the Reynolda Village.
The village was-'once approximately 60
structures that consolidated homes for
employees of the Reynolds family. The
Reynoldses helped put Winston-Salem on
the map with the creation of R.J. Reynolds
Tobacco, which produces such brands as
Camel, Winston and Salem. The \illage
also included two churches, farm buildings,
businesses, a post office, a school, and
offices at the heart of the estate.
All the quaint buildings in Reynolda
Village were designed by Charles Barton
Keen or designed under his supervision.
Keen is the architect for the Reynolds fam
ily home, which today is a large museum,
Reynolda House, which houses American
arts and hosts a series of arts education pro
grams each year.
Today, the restored buildings of Reynol
da Village make up more than 1,000 acres
of unique shops and restaurants. AH of the
buildings still have a similar design as an
old-fashioned English country village of
the 1900s.
The village is also the home of the
beautiful Reynolda Gardens.
Inside the village is a variety of shops,
including The Village Tavern, an eatery
that is a popular gathering place for all
