Lee Mansion

The Lee Mansion has been well preserved over the years.

 

Built in 1768, The Jeremiah Lee Mansion is a colonial Georgian home built by American craftsmen when Lee was the wealthiest merchant and ship owner in the state. 

Rare 18th century hand-painted wallpaper and early American furniture can be found inside the mansion and offer examples of another era. Decorative arts from the 18th and 19th centuries include ceramics, silver, mirrors, clocks, and textiles.
