2013 - Year of the Virginia Historic Home

Fostering the heritage of the Commonwealth by promoting education about and tourism of Virginia's Historic Homes.

In 2013, Virginia's Executive Mansion will celebrate its 200th birthday. The past 200 years at the Mansion have been rich with history - much like the past years at many of Virginia's historic houses. To celebrate 200 magnificent years at Virginia's Executive Mansion and to increase awareness of other historic residences in Virginia, the Governor and First Lady have declared 2013 as Virginia's "Year of the Historic Home."

Virginia's Governor and First Lady celebrate this Year of the Historic Home by encouraging Virginians and her visitors to visit the many historic homes throughout our beautiful Commonwealth. Take a look around -- you will find that many houses are hidden jewels right around the corner from your homes and places of work.
