Monroe County Convention & Visitors Bureau

Union, WV

Residents of the farming counties in the southeastern corner of West Virginia have been living in harmony with the land since the late 1700’s. Traveling through Monroe offers a picture of life in these rural, agricultural communities which in many ways, retains the character imparted upon it by previous generations. We cordially invite you to step away and unplug from the hectic pace of life, and take a few days to explore Monroe County and the surrounding region.
