On June 2, 1791, President George Washington ate breakfast at Dobson¿s Tavern. On November 14, 1817, German-born Joseph Kerner (also spelled K¿rner) purchased the land and renamed the area Kerner¿s Crossroads. This begins the story of Kernersville. The same roads, still graced with historic churches, stores, and homes, crisscross at the heart of this community. K¿rner¿s Folly, which contains 22 rooms, housed the first private little theater in America.
