How to Use This Madisonville, Virginia Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Madisonville, Virginia. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Virginia or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Madisonville.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Madisonville occupies a quiet stretch of Virginia land defined by the persistent, winding path of Jenkins Creek, which carves its way through the local soil. It lies 29.1 miles southeast of Madison Heights, VA (from Madison Heights, VA: bearing 125°T), and is situated 18.2 miles west-southwest of Farmville. The landscape here is characterized by broad, earthy expanses and thickets of hardwood that soften the transition toward the distant, hazy blue silhouettes of the Blue Ridge Mountains on the western horizon. During the autumn months, the air grows crisp and carries the scent of drying foliage, while the low-angled sun casts long, amber shadows across the fields. Residents often look toward the nearby Spring Creek Lake for recreation, finding a stillness in its waters that reflects the slow, deliberate pace of life found throughout Madisonville.

Economic life in Madisonville remains rooted in the deep traditions of the Piedmont, where the legacy of agriculture still informs the daily rhythms of the people. While the town maintains a steady connection to its past, the modern era is marked by a quiet industry that sustains the regional economy, drawing on the proximity of Gallion State Forest to support local trade and land management. The history of the area is not shouted in monuments but held in the persistence of family-owned plots and the weathered architecture that lines the older streets. On quiet evenings, the atmosphere feels heavy with the weight of centuries, a subtle reminder of the generations who have worked this inland earth long before the present day.

About This Madisonville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Madisonville, Virginia. Coordinates: 37.188203, -78.690004. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Madisonville includes the ZIP code (23958, 23651), telephone area code (276, 757), county seat of Charlotte County (Charlotte Court House), and school district assignment.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
