The Mississippi Governor's Mansion is a beautiful example of Greek Revival architecture from the 1840's. This stunning building is the second oldest continuously occupied governor’s residence in the country, and a National Historic Landmark.

Governor Tilghman Tucker and his family were not able to move into the residence until a few years after its construction due to the depression caused by the Panic of 1837.

Today, this landmark stands tall and represents one of the most exquisite examples of Greek Revival architecture in the nation, designed by architect William Nichols.
