Stratford Hall Plantation

Built by Thomas Lee in the 1730s, Stratford Hall Plantation is the birthplace of Robert E. Lee and was home to four generations of the Lee family, including the only brothers to sign the Declaration of Independence: Richard Henry Lee and Francis Lightfoot Lee. Stratford was also home to Henry "Light Horse Harry" Lee, Revolutionary War hero. The 1,900-acre plantation includes the Great House, outbuildings, a visitor center, flower and boxwood gardens, a log cabin dining room, a gift shop, a gristmill, and trails.

You can choose a guided tour or explore the mansion and grounds with a self-guided audio tour.
