Quicksburg is a CDP in Shenandoah County, in the U.S. state of Virginia.[1]

The Benjamin Wierman House and Zirkle Mill are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[2]

In 2024, the Shenandoah County school board voted to restore Confederate names to Quicksburg district's Ashby-Lee Elementary and Stonewall Jackson High schools after having removed them in 2020. This appears to be the first district in the country to restore Confederate names once removed from schools.[3]
