“Lee Hall Mansion is a historic brick plantation house built between 1848 and 1859. This Italianate residence was constructed by the prominent planter Richard Decatur Lee for his family. Located on Virginia's Lower Peninsula, the mansion is an architectural gem that has been restored and decorated to reflect its pre-war splendor. Visitors can step back in time to the mid-Victorian period, experiencing authentically furnished rooms, including a beautiful ladies' parlor. The mansion offers access to the Peninsula Campaign Gallery and provides guided tours of the historic house. With its natural and commanding view of the countryside, the mansion was used as headquarters by Confederate generals Joseph E. Johnston and John B. Magruder during the American Civil War in 1862. Lee Hall Mansion offers free parking, a gift shop, and wheelchair access.”
