Itinerar

    The tour of this beautifully preserved slice of Colonial America begins at the Visitor Center, where you can get your first taste of the nation's largest living museum.

  2. Oprirea 2

    10 min

    Your first stop is at the doorstep of the Peyton Randolph House, the former home of a fiery revolutionary and one of the oldest buildings in Williamsburg! You might not have heard of William Randolph, but he was a trusted ally of folks like Thomas Jefferson.

  3. The Rockefellers' Bassett Hall

    Trecere fără oprire

    A simple two-story 18th-century white frame farmhouse nestled on 585 acres of lawn, garden, and woodlands, Bassett Hall once was the Williamsburg home of John D. Rockefeller Jr. and his wife Abby Aldrich Rockefeller .Philip Johnson, a member of the House of Burgesses from King and Queen County, Virginia, is believed to have built the 18th-century frame house sometime between 1753 and 1766.

    Purchased by Burwell Bassett around 1800

    Union cavalryman George Armstrong Custer guest in home during the Civil War

  4. Moore House

    10 min

    Cornwallis and Washington send representatives to the Moore House. The British are offering total surrender to the French and American coalition.

  5. Yortown Battlefield Visitors Center

    Trecere fără oprire

    Our tour begins outside the Yorktown Battlefield Visitor Center at 1000 Colonial National Historical Pkwy, Yorktown. If you’re not there already, you should head there now.

    Buy once, use for one year! Ideal for extended visits and return trips over the next 12 months.

  6. Oprirea 6

    Trecere fără oprire

    This ground is still an important part of American history. It’s here where plans were drawn for the final battle of the American Revolution.

  7. Oprirea 7

    5 min

    Just as the French Navy made a large contribution to the success of the American Revolution, so did the French artillery.

  8. Oprirea 8

    5 min

    Grand French Battery, the location of the largest concentration of French Artillery during the Battle of Yorktown.

  9. Yorktown National Cemetery

    5 min

    You might be surprised to find that this isn’t actually a Revolutionary War cemetery. Instead, this is a Civil War burial ground!

  10. Yorktown Victory Monument

    5 min

    We end our journey at a fitting place, the Yorktown Victory Monument. This monument was conceived soon after Cornwallis’s surrender.

  11. Colonial Williamsburg Capitol Building

    5 min

    Built between 1701 and 1705, the first Williamsburg statehouse served the colony of Virginia until fire destroyed the building in 1747.The first floor of the west building was for the General Court and the colony's secretary, the first floor of the east for the House of Burgesses and its clerk. Arched windows marched across the facades. Stairs on one side led to the Council Chamber, a lobby, and the Council clerk's office

    stairs on the other side led to three committee rooms. A second-floor conference room connected the classically corniced structures, and a six-sided cupola on the ridge of the hipped and dormered roof crowned it all. Though the west wing was completed by July 1703, it took Cary until November 1705 to finish all the work.

  12. Oprirea 12

    Trecere fără oprire

    After that, you'll arrive at the Raleigh Tavern, where rebellious Virginians met to plot a possible revolution against their British rulers. These meetings even welcomed famous names like Thomas Jefferson!

  13. Colonial Williamsburg Magazine

    5 min

    Then you'll come to the Colonial Williamsburg Magazine, the site of a tense standoff between American patriots and British soldiers trying to steal all the gunpowder from the town before it could fall into rebel hands

  14. Colonial Williamsburg

    5 min

    Directly opposite the Magazine, you'll find the old courthouse, where residents of Williamsburg heard the Declaration of Independence read aloud for the very first time

  15. Oprirea 15

    5 min

    Up next is the Play House Stage, a recreation of one of America's first theatres. The original may have failed terribly, but this one still puts on shows on a regular basis!

  16. Governor's Palace

    5 min

    Then you'll see the extravagant Governor's Palace, and maybe start to get a sense of why the residents of Williamsburg didn't particularly care for their British royal governors!

  17. George Wythe House

    5 min

    Up next is the house of George Wythe, a signer of the Declaration of Independence who stands out from most of his compatriots because of one simple fact: he was an abolitionist. In Virginia, a state which used a huge amount of slave labor, this didn't exactly make him a lot of friends!

  18. Bruton Parish Episcopal Church

    5 min

    Continuing on, you'll arrive at the oldest building in Colonial Williamsburg: the Bruton Parish Episcopal Church. Here, you'll learn not just about the church's surprising history, but also about how it's the whole reason Colonial Williamsburg exists in the first place

  19. Oprirea 19

    5 min

    After that is the Bowden-Armistead House, the history of which showcases some of the deep divisions which cut through Williamsburg around the time of the Civil War. See, the owner was a northerner, and you can probably imagine how his Virginian neighbors felt about that...

  20. William & Mary

    5 min

    Your route takes you next onto the campus of William & Mary College, the oldest college in the United States

  21. Wren Building

    5 min

    The final stop on your tour is the Wren Building, an impressive structure which isn't just the oldest building on the William & Mary Campus, but the oldest college building in the entire United States!
