The bank operated its branches within the town limits for ninety years, until expanding north along Route 29 to the Lynchburg Regional Airport in 1998. Since then, First National Bank has grown to serve the Central Virginia region through ten area branches in Altavista, Lynchburg, Rustburg, Forest, and Amherst. As the needs of our customers have changed over time, First National Bank has evolved to meet those needs, while maintaining a distinct, community banking identity.

We employ industry professionals with a proven track record of excellence in banking, while also cultivating new talent around our culture and service standards. At First National Bank, our mission is to provide an extraordinary customer experience. read more
