Newberry sits in the Midlands roughly 40 miles northwest of Columbia, seat of Newberry County. The town was incorporated in 1832 and grew as a county court town and cotton shipping point along rail lines connecting Columbia to the upstate. Newberry Opera House, built in 1881 and restored in the 1990s, anchors the downtown and hosts a year-round performance schedule that draws regional audiences.
Newberry College, founded in 1856 by the Evangelical Lutheran Church, operates a campus of about 1,300 students in the center of town. The college survived the Civil War by evacuating to Walhalla and returning to Newberry in 1877. Wheeler Hall and several other buildings on campus date to the late 19th century.
Downtown Newberry retains a largely intact commercial core from the late 1800s and early 1900s. The Newberry Hotel, built in 1907, was restored and reopened in the 2000s. The county is rural beyond the town, with farming and timber still significant components of the local economy alongside manufacturing plants that serve the BMW supply chain and other upstate industries.
