Natchez National Historical Park is a public park in Natchez that commemorates the history of the city. The park comprises three different sites, namely Fort Rosalie, the William Johnson House, and the Melrose Estate. Built by the French in the 18th century, Fort Rosalie is the site of a former fortification that was later renamed Fort Panmure and controlled by Great Britain, Spain, and finally the United States. The William Johnson House was the home of 19th century African-American barber and Natchez resident William Johnson, and the Melrose Estate is the beautifully maintained estate of a lawyer, state senator, and planter John T. McMurran, who lived in Natchez. The William Johnson House and the Melrose Estate display an array of antiques and period pieces collected from different eras, and archaeological objects found in the park are also on display.
