Royal Governor's Palace, Williamsburg, Virginia
The Governor's Palace 1710-1715
The Palace and its dependencies, preeminent among notable estates in colonial America, have been rebuilt on original foundations. Many of the rooms in the Palace are of special interest because of the collection of antique furniture, paintings and other furnishings that have been chosen to conform with inventories of royal governors. The gardens are considered more typical of formal eighteenth century English gardens than any others in America
