The chamber of commerce visitor center sits inside the most striking building in the region: a small house made out of 65 tons of black bituminous coal from a nearby seam. Built in 1933, it's a fitting tribute to the region's most important and profitable natural resource. Stop by for a driving map to nearby Hatfield & McCoy feud sites.
