Carlyle House

A formal dining room with gray paneled walls, a large mirror, and tall windows. A table set for a meal with white tablecloth, candles, and a cake is surrounded by wooden chairs on a red patterned carpet.

A white gazebo stands in a lush garden surrounded by blooming pink roses, green shrubs, purple irises, and tall trees, with buildings visible in the background.

Three people walk on a brick path toward a historic two-story stone building, framed by open black iron gates, under a bright blue sky.

A Georgian manor house built in 1753 by merchant and city founder John Carlyle. Here, five royal governors and General Braddock met to discuss funding of the French and Indian War. Daily tours, youth programs, special events, exhibits and lectures offer visitors a chance to experience eighteenth century life through the eyes of one man and his family as he made the journey from English citizen to American patriot.
