Robert Mills House

One of the four house museums under the management of preservation group Historic Columbia (the others are Hampton-Preston Mansion & Gardens, Mann-Simons Cottage, and the Woodrow Wilson Family Home), this gracious 1823 home was built by Washington Monument designer Robert Mills. Beautiful gardens, complete with a boxwood maze, surround the Greek revival-style home. Head inside to see ornate chandeliers, Venetian windows, and classic federalist furnishings. Tickets for all four historic house museums may be purchased at the Robert Mills Welcome Center and Museum Shop located at 1616 Blanding Street.
