Robert Building
The Bank of French Broad and adjacent Robert Building were built in 1922-1923. They are two- to three-story, Classical Revival style brick buildings that were joined into one building in the late 1970s to early 1980s.
This is a privately owned house, and is therefore not open to the general public.
This is probably the most attractive building in Marshall. It is a brick building with a clock tower on top and Greek pillars in the front.
This is a beautiful brick building on the eastern side of downtown Marshall. It is built in a colonial architecture style and looks somewhat similar to the county courthouse.
One of America's great hiking trails, the Appalachian Trail passes north of Marshall near the town of Hot Springs. The section of the Appalachian Trail near Marshall is inside Pisgah National Forest.
This national forest surrounds Marshall on the town's north, east, and west sides.

This is the main grocery store in town, and it is not a chain store.

By train
A railroad goes past historic Marshall, but there are no train stations along the Marshall part of the railroad line.
You can easily walk around historic Marshall, but you will probably want to drive to the northern part of Marshall, which is more than a mile from the historic area.
