About Patrick Henry's Red Hill
Red Hill was Patrick Henry’s last home, acquired after the Revolution. Henry had helped propel Virginia toward resistance with his 1775 call to arms, served as the commonwealth’s first governor, and organized troops and supplies. The property commemorates his revolutionary leadership rather than a wartime event at the site.
Patrick Henry’s final home site operates as a museum complex within a conserved rural landscape. The property includes a reconstruction of the main house, surviving law office and dependencies, archaeological resources, gardens, fields, museum exhibits, visitor facilities, and Henry’s marked grave.
