It’s not as grand as the homes of America’s other founding fathers, yet there is certain serenity at Red Hill, The Patrick Henry National Memorial. This is the property where Henry retired in 1794 to live out the last five years of his life. Having lived in eleven other locations in Virginia, Henry chose Red Hill as “one of the best garden spots of the world.” Looking out over the Staunton River, one can understand the appeal of the property and its landscapes. Altogether there are seven historic structures to explore, as well as a museum with more Henry memorabilia than any other location. Even though Henry’s Law Office is the only original structure remaining on the property and the remainder are reconstructions on original foundations, that fact does not take away from the history of this remarkable man.
