ABOUT US

Salemtowne offers an engaging environment for older adults seeking healthy, active and independent lives. Our community lies in Northwest Winston-Salem, North Carolina, close to Wake Forest University and near historic Bethabara. After passing through our gate, you will drive up the hill winding through one of our three villages of cottages. The road opens to the community building capped with a simple cupola – the traditional Moravian designation for community. Within this community, residents cultivate their lives creating the spirit of family. Residents live life on their own terms – free from worry and supported by the presence and care of professional and capable staff.

Our Mission

Salemtowne is a non-profit continuing care retirement community that promotes the well-being of its residents by providing a caring environment. Salemtowne is an ecumenical community that reflects the Moravian values of individual respect, hospitality, life-long learning, and love of the arts.

Our Vision

Salemtowne is a retirement community of excellence that fosters independence, security, wellness, and the growth of its residents to their full potential. Salemtowne supports older people and caregivers in the broader community through educational and community activities.
