Knakal's Bakery, one of Culpeper's oldest businesses, goes up for sale

Knakal’s Bakery, one of Culpeper’s oldest operating businesses, has put its historic downtown home on the market. The buildings at 146 and 150 E. Davis St. housing the 91-year-old bakery and a neighboring commercial space, were listed last Friday night for $1.2 million by Duckett Corbin Team Realtors with RE/MAX Gateway. The real estate is offered separately from the bakery business itself, though acquisition inquiries for the business are welcome, the realty team said in a Facebook post . Dwayne and Beth Whitt, who have owned and operated Knakal’s since 1977, were on vacation Monday and could not immediately be reached for comment. The bakery opened in 1935 and has only had two owners, the Knakals and the Whitts, who retained its original layout, vintage display cases and decades-old recipes for its signature donuts and apple bread. "Everything is made here and baked fresh daily,” Beth Whitt told the Culpeper Times in 2023. “At Christmas, a few holiday cookies are brought in, but everything else is made on site.” The bakery sells an assortment of donuts, polka rolls, cake bars, different kinds of cupcakes, cakes, cookies, spice bars, fudge nuts, pecan sandies, yeast biscuits and the locally-famous apple bread.

A Civil War soldier who died more than 160 years ago in Prince William County has been given a final resting place. He was laid to rest with full military funeral honors at Arlington National Cemetery on Nov. 4. “We gather to honor an unknown soldier whose life story is not fully known to history, yet whose sacrifice is fully worthy of the nation’s gratitude,” Chaplain Capt. Phil Morlock said while leading the ceremony. “We know that he answered a call greater than himself. We know that he stood in a time when the nation was tested by fire.” In March 2024, archaeologists discovered the soldier’s remains at Manassas National Battlefield Park at the site of a Civil War field hospital. His identity is unknown, but forensic analysis shows he was around 16 to 19 years old. The Union infantryman died during the Second Battle of Manassas in 1862. “As I watched that ceremony today, I felt it very hard not to cry,” said David Duncan, president of the American Battlefield
