I'm afraid that the translation into English will be quite ridiculous. A very colorful museum, because everything around is old, and without visible restoration. It's like coming to a village and seeing an abandoned manor. Huge manor house, creaky floors. A small yard with two outbuildings for servants and a garage. Monumental oaks on the site. Everything carries the spirit, and even the smell of history, everything is incredibly textured. I recommend.

Great tour! We parked at the visitor center and it was a short walk. The audio tour was really good; I recommend bringing your own headphones. It was really interesting to see the property preserved instead of restored. All of the staff were nice. There are restrooms on site as well.

The house was owned by the richest slave owner in Charleston. He bought and sold slaves on the steps of his own home.
