Frederick was occupied by general Jubal Early in 1864, and he levied a ransom against the destruction of the town. The $200,000 was paid by the town government, who borrowed from local banks by financing with bond issues.
The town of Frederick is home to numerous historic sites such as the Beatty Cramer House, a timber-frame and brick building; the Hessian Barracks, built in 1777; and Prospect Hall Mansion, built in 1803 on the highest elevation in Frederick.
