A short history

A short history of Aquia Harbour and Aquia Creek

Aquia Church, built in 1757 and now a National Historic Landmark, stands just west of the community. Government Island, reached by a bridge from Lions Park, was the quarry for the Aquia sandstone used in the White House and the U.S. Capitol; Stafford opened it as a park in 2010.
