The Patsy Cline Historic House at 608 S. Kent St., in a working-class neighborhood of Winchester, Virginia was the home from 1948 to 1953 of Virginia Patterson Hensley, who later became the country music star known as Patsy Cline. She moved out of the house when she got married at the age of 21 to Gerald Cline, but returned intermittently afterwards. The house was placed on both the Virginia Landmarks Register and the National Register of Historic Places in 2005, and a Virginia State Historical Marker was placed there about the same time. The house was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2021.
